Cloudbase Paragliding – Wilderness becomes Wild Freedom

The spectacular meeting of golden sands and the shimmering Indian Ocean is showcased best from above. With Cloudbase Paragliding, you get to do exactly that — drift above a turquoise sea, swoop along green ridges, and feel the breeze writing poetry through your hair.

Run by SAHPA-registered instructors Jan and Khobi, Cloudbase is all about turning gravity into pure joy. These sky-savvy pros blend expert knowledge with charm that immediately puts you at ease, so whether you’re an adrenaline junkie or a nervous first-timer, you’ll be in the right frame of mind for your adventure. No experience required — just a sense of adventure and maybe a dash of curiosity about what the world looks like from a bird’s point of view.

There’s a certain magic in leaving the ground behind — the hush of air, the weightlessness, the shimmer of sea below, the sudden realisation that “flying” isn’t just for the birds. And if you’d like to go beyond being a passenger, Cloudbase’s one-day intro course lets you try your hand (and feet) at the basics of flight.

Fly with Khobi, South Africa’s first female commercial tandem pilot, for an extra dose of inspiration — or let Jan show you the thermals like an old friend introducing you to secret sky paths.
