Description

This site has a height of 135 meters and is rarely used for paragliding. It is primarily a hang glider takeoff spot, and no flight logs have been found. Before flying, contact the local club at [this link](https://sites.google.com/site/jsyhpc/sites). Takeoff is best with a northerly wind, specifically at 010 degrees. This allows for soaring along a large part of the North Coast. Only take off if the forecast indicates that the wind will remain soarable, as there are very few safe bottom landing options on Jersey's North Coast. For landing, the site is top landable. The beach below is very rocky and narrow, making it unsuitable for hang gliders but acceptable for paragliders. The nearby beach at Bonne Nuit is a better option but still not recommended for hang gliders. Hang gliders can 'fly on the wall' at this location. To get there, head towards the aerials down a dirt track. The takeoff area is to the east of the aerials. This site is recommended only for experienced soaring pilots. Flight regulations require maintaining 150 ft ATO (Above Takeoff). For more information, contact Nick at 01534 863972.
