Melbourne Paragliding

Depending on the day's wind, Melbourne Paragliding's pilots might meet clients at Portsea, Cairns Bay or the cliffs above Flinders on the Mornington Peninsula, or head inland toward Yea or the alpine ridgelines further north — the operation is built around chasing whichever site is flying well rather than running from a single launch. Tandem flights range from a straightforward 15–20 minute introduction to a 40-minute adventure flight with cross-country legs and aerobatic manoeuvres for those who want more than a scenic glide. The team has close to three decades of combined flying experience and a clean safety record, with a certified tandem instructor briefing every passenger before launch. Flinders itself is one of the more dependable coastal sites in the state, with cliffs that generate lift off the sea breeze for much of the year. Bookings are made directly online, with the exact meeting point confirmed once conditions for the day are set.
