Macassar Paragliding Site, South Africa This site is not recommended due to significant security concerns, including regular attacks and thefts. Additionally, it is located within the flight path of Cape Town International Airport, making it a challenging and potentially dangerous location for paragliding. If you still wish to fly here, it is crucial to consult with local pilots about the current situation. The site is rarely used and primarily suitable for soaring. For a safer experience, park at the beach to the east and walk up to the take-off point. Launching from the dunes at the beach is often possible. Be extremely cautious during both take-off and top-landing. Important Information: - Do not fly higher than 40 meters above the ground due to the proximity to Cape Town International Airport. - Contact Lewine Walters at Wolfgat Nature Reserve (0829008630) one hour before flying and after you finish. - Quemic Security Company provides armed ranger patrols. Inform them before flying: (082) 904-7189 Nicky, (063) 696-8282 Rasheed. - Notify Air Traffic Control (ATC) at Cape Town International Airport before and after your flight: +27 (21) 9371116. Coordinates: -34.0725, 18.6578 Google Maps: [Location](https://www.google.com/maps/place/-34.0725,18.6578) For more information, visit: - [Glen Club Macassar](https://www.glenclub.co.za/macassar/) - [SAHPA General Notices](https://www.sahpa.co.za/general-notices/2021-10-08/sanparks-emp-for-tmnp/) Cautions: - Avoid the site due to security concerns. - High tide leaves little to no beach for landing. - Wind speeds can increase rapidly, making conditions unflyable. - Be cautious of top-landing upwind of the road to avoid being blown into traffic. - The ridge-top can produce rotor. Directions: Take the coastal road from Muizenberg towards Macassar and Somerset West (Baden Powell Drive). Approximately 10 km after passing Strandfontein Coastal Park, look for the signpost ‘Wolfgat Nature Reserve’ and seagulls soaring on the right. Continue driving past the highest point of the road, park beside the ‘No Dumping’ sign. Note that vehicles are not safe in this area.
