Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to soar like an eagle? It is a thought most
people have in their lifetime but up until today, it had just been a dream.
We jumped off the ledge into the gusting wind and for a second I felt weightless. Seconds
later the updraft pushed air against the wings of the glider and I felt like a bird flying.
Below us, tourists were suntanning in the corner of tallow beach just below the famous
Byron Bay lighthouse.
We floated through the air while calmly observing our surroundings just like a bird of
prey looking for its next meal.
There are a few different companies that offer hang gliding near Byron Bay and they can
be booked for tandem flights most days, weather permitting. We went up with Byron
Airwaves Flying School who were professional, friendly, and landed us softly on the white
sand beach.
