Operated by: Butterfly Paragliding


Location: Base at Sunacre in a lane W of Chale and S of the A3055. The launch site is nearby

Period of operation:  From about 1989

NOTES: This operation is independent from other paragliding operations on the Isle of Wight and offers tuition plus passenger 'paragliding experience' flights. Without much doubt, when the weather is fine, the views aloft for passengers will be very hard to beat anywhere else in the UK.
