Wind tugs at the harness and the sea opens beneath you — a strip of aquamarine cradled by a crescent of sand. From Babadağ’s launch, roughly 2,000 meters above sea level, tandem pilots ease the glider into thermals and let gravity and lift decide the route. Below, the Blue Lagoon presses its color against the coastline and fishing boats shrink to dots.
