You step off the minivan into heat that smells of salt and eucalyptus. In the morning light Hartley’s lagoon is already busy: a bald-eyed crocodile slides like a shadow while a guide’s voice rings out, sharp and practiced, narrating the feeding show. After hours among reptiles and rainforest trails, you’re folded back into the vehicle and driven two minutes down the road to Wangetti Beach. Here the wind reads you as easily as a map; within moments you’re clipped to your pilot, running a short beachfront take-off and suddenly watching the reef and rainforest resolve into a coastline ribbon beneath your feet.

The coastline is part of lands long managed by Aboriginal peoples; modern tourism grew around early 20th‑century coastal access and the later development of wildlife parks that aimed to combine education with rescue.
Hartley’s runs rescue and rehabilitation programs and enforces boardwalk rules to protect sensitive habitat; paragliding operators brief pilots to avoid disturbing nesting shorebirds and dune vegetation.
