Paragliding Bali Courses Indonesia

Extreme Sports Café’s new partner Bali Paragliding School offers, easy Introductory Tandem Paragliding flights for first time flyers to full Certification Paragliding Courses for those wishing to achieve a Pilot Rating. Our partner Bali Paragliding School operates from April to end of Nov. Join Extreme Sports Cafe and our partner Bali Paragliding School for your Bali Paragliding Holidays.

Learning to fly is quite enjoyable given you make sure that you learn with a professional instructor. Trying to learn to fly a paraglider on your own is not something you should try to do. With proper instruction in just a few short days you will go from controlling the canopy to actually flying up in the sky. It really is quite an exhilarating experience and one we recommend for everyone.

The main flight zone and Bali Paragliding training School is located at Timbis beach. Paragliding courses range from beginner courses to advanced training. Our partner Bali Paragliding School operate for Tandems and Paragliding Courses from April 15th to 30th November (the dry season).

When the wind is too strong for Paragliding our partner school teach kitesurfing in Nusa-Dua one of Bali's finest and safest beaches. Here a natural coral reef creates a wide and shallow lagoon noted for its crystal clear waters. It is only 5 minutes away from the flying spot at Timbis.
