If you’ve never tried hang gliding, there are a few things you’ll want to know.

First, it’s hardly as scary as you think, because unlike skydiving, there is no sensation of falling. Second, with proper instruction, it’s a very safe sport. And third, when you go hang gliding in Puerto Rico, you get to experience free flight above the lush canopy of the El Yunque rainforest.

  • Team Spirit

    Team Spirit brings over 20 years’ experience in the sport, and their instructors have been certified by the U.S. Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association. So you know you’ll be in good hands when you soar above the treetops and feel the Caribbean wind beneath your wings. For more information, call 787-850-0508

    TIPS & HINTS

    • No Experience Necessary

      If you’ve never strapped into a harness before, don’t worry. Your instructor will teach you the basics before you take to the air.

    • Experience El Yunque

      Since your hang gliding tour takes place in El Yunque, bring your bathing suit and spend the rest of the day hiking to La Mina Falls for a dip beneath a waterfall.

    • Keep Your Eyes Open

      On a clear day, you’ll be able to see the bright blue ribbon of the Atlantic Ocean, and perhaps even all the way to San Juan.
