Paragliding School on the Isle of Wight

High Adventure Paragliding is a fully registered British Paragliding and Hang gliding Association (BHPA) school. We were the first UK school to teach paragliding in the late 80s and many of the teaching techniques used by other schools today, were developed by us. We have our own priavate teaching site's. This lets you have uncrowded skies and lots of room to learn in.

Experienced Instructors

 

We are dedicated instructors who have been teaching paragliding courses to all levels for many years. Each instructor has a wealth of experience to offer new pilots and all are and licensed by the British Hang-gliding and Paragliding Association (BHPA).

See our paragliding school slideshow and video page of students launching and flying.

The Isle of Wight is on the UK South Coast - a short ferry ride across the Solent and within easy reach of London (1.5 - 2 hours) and the home counties.

More flyable days

Being in the "deep South", the Island often escapes the worst effects of low pressure systems and has on average the most number of flyable days for paragliding tuition in the country. Regular sea-breezes provide smooth flying, laminar conditions, that are ideal for rapid progression and easy learning on the basic paragliding skills you need to progress. Couple this with access to over eight flying sites all within 40 minutes drive, which cater for all wind directions and the advantages of learning to fly with High Adventure Paraglding are clear. See our Weather Page for more information.

Collection Service

We provide a FREE collection service from the ferry terminal at Yarmouth on each flyable day.
