We have been flying the ridges and soaring above the cliffs at the famous Cape Byron lighthouse for over 25 years now and the setting for your first hang gliding experience could not be better. Your first tandem flight can truly give you the freedom like only a quiet hang glider can and no previous experience is necessary.
