Launch from Son Tra’s coastal ridge and glide over Da Nang for a 15–20 minute tandem paragliding flight. Certified pilots handle takeoff and landing, leaving passengers to enjoy sweeping views of Linh Ung Pagoda, forested headlands and the city coastline.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The paraglider lifts off from a grassy ridge on Son Tra, and the city of Da Nang slips into a low mosaic beneath you: tiled roofs, the coastline curving away, and the white spire of Linh Ung Pagoda standing like a compass needle. The wind finds an easy line along the peninsula’s forested slopes, carrying a pilot and passenger out over rocky headlands and sheltered bays for a 15–20 minute flight that feels deliberate and contained rather than reckless.
