Paragliding Courses in Bali Indonesia from Extreme Sports Cafe 

Unlike a regular round parachute, a paraglider is a simple wing in every sense and is designed using the same aerodynamic principles as a conventional aircraft. Paragliding is easy and safe to learn and requires no power source unlike other conventional aircraft.  Paragliding is flight in its simplest form. You too can soar high above the earth using only the winds as a source of power.  You can literally stay in the air for hours soaring like an eagle until you decide you've had enough. Learn to fly on Bali with Extreme Sports Cafe.


Paragliding Bali Indonesia

Bali is an Indonesian island located in the most western of the Lesser Sunda Islands, lying between Java to the west and Lombok to the east. Java is the most highly populated and influential of all the islands. Lombok is one of the quieter and moderately slower paced islands. Bali is a small island, just 140 Km by 80 Km. It is one of the country's 33 provinces with the provincial capital at Denpasar towards the south of the island. Bali has developed a world of it's own, it not only captures what is special about Indonesia but also has a uniqueness of its own. 

  • The island of Bali is located in the tropics, just about 6º South of the equator. Blessed with warm temperatures throughout the year with sunrises at 6 am in the morning and sunsets at 6 pm. Paragliding Bali Indonesia
  • Indonesia has a tropical climate. There is no Autumn or Winter but distinctive Dry and Wet seasons. The transitional period between these two seasons is interspersed by the occasional heavy rain shower. Even in the midst of the West Monsoon season temperatures range from 21 degrees to 33 degrees C although at higher altitudes it can be much cooler. 
  • The East Monsoon - June to September brings dry weather. The humidity is low and it can be quite cool in the evenings. At this time of the year there is hardly any rain in the coastal areas. 
  • The West Monsoon - December to March is the Wet weather. There are heavy showers and high humidity but days are usually sunny. The rain starts during the night and passes quickly. 

Bali Indonesia Notes 

  • Bali Island is a shoppers paradise particularly for casual and tailored clothing, locally made jewellery, handicrafts, antiques and artefacts. All at unbelievable prices, leather ware is one of the unexpected local bargains with everything from handbags through to tailor made leather jackets and coats. In fact prices are so inexpensive; you're sure to have to pick up an extra suitcase. Try bargaining at the street markets of Kuta, Sanur of Nusa Dua. 
  • The unit of currency is Indonesia Rupiah indicated as IDR. Foreign currency can be converted at banks and moneychangers. 
  • Today there is an increasing number of direct flight connections between Bali and many European, Australian and Asian cites. As well as Los Angeles and Honolulu. 
  • Do not look for Bali on airline timetables, It is listed as Denpasar. (DPS) This is the name of the island's capital. From Bali's international Ngurah Rai Airport it is only a 15 to 30 minutes drive to Kuta, Legian, Sanur or Nusa Dua and in 50 to 60 minutes you could be in Ubud.
