About this activity

Tandem Paraglide flight from Signal Hill or Lions head.

Fly with an experienced instructor over the neighborhoods of Cape Town City. This is one of few places in the world where you can fly over a city, we like to call it Urban paragliding. Paragliding with an experienced instructor is fun and safe. We operate daily from either Signal Hill or Lions Head mountain. Flights are weather dependent and your pilot will give you the best flight possible according to the weather conditions of the day.

We will land in Seapoint at the Seapoint Promenade when flying from Signal Hill. For Lions Head Mountain flights we will land close to Camps Bay.

Lion's Head flights are only flyable when the wind is blowing from the Southwest.
