About this experience

Paragliding in Captain Cook is a tandem paragliding flight launched from the slopes of Honalo, Hawaii, on the Big Island. The flight offers views of the Kona coastline and the Pacific Ocean from a height of approximately 1,500 feet. Pilots guide passengers on a thermal-assisted descent lasting 15 to 25 minutes, landing on a designated field near the Captain Cook town centre.

What to expect

  • Tandem flight with a certified pilot, lasting 15 to 25 minutes from launch to landing
  • Takeoff from a grassy slope at 1,500 feet elevation, with a short run and immediate lift-off
  • Aerial views of Kealakekua Bay, the Captain Cook Monument, and the surrounding coffee farms
  • Includes all harness, helmet, and glider equipment, plus a pre-flight safety briefing
  • Suitable for first-time flyers and those with no prior experience; minimum age is 8 years
  • Flight duration depends on thermal conditions, with calm mornings offering the longest airtime
