More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The first morning opens with wind and light. You stand on the grassy flank of Signal Hill, harness clipped, the city’s harbor squatting below like a model, and an instructor counts the breeze. When the wing fills, Cape Town tilts: Table Mountain slides left, the Atlantic flashes to the right, and gravity becomes an agreeable guide. For twenty minutes you drift along the spine of the Mother City, gulls sliding under your wing as if to check the itinerary.
