Visitors to Eastbourne can soar high above the South Downs as the resort teams up with Airworks Paragliding Centre to launch breathtaking flight experiences on its online shop.
Offering a unique way to explore the brand new South Downs National Park with a birds eye view, visitors can book now to take to the skies for dual flights and paragliding and paramotoring taster days.
Nestled at the foot of the South Downs with acres of spectacular landscape on its doorstep, the new paragliding experiences bookable from VisitEastbourne.com offer the perfect antidote for that New Year resolution to try something new.
Eastbourne Borough Council Cabinet Member for Tourism, Cllr Susan Morris said “We are very pleased to be working with Airworks Paragliding Centre to extend the range of items and experiences bookable through VisitEastbourne, making it a great one stop shop for any visitor planning a break to the resort. Eastbourne offers a wealth of spectacular countryside on its doorstep and the paragliding experiences offer a unique day out for any visitor.”
There are three types of flight experiences available on VisitEastbourne, including a paragliding dual flight, a paragliding taster day and a paramotoring taster day.
Situated in Glynde, right in the heart of the premier flying sites in the South East on the beautiful Sussex South Downs, budding paragliders can fly with the best with British Champion 2000 and 2002 Team Captain, Steve Purdie, leading the courses on offer.
From training to fly yourself to just flying straight from the top of the hill with a tandem flight, visitors can book a paragliding course to suit them via VisitEastbourne.com.
Joining other experiences on VisitEastbourne including cookery experiences at the Culinary Arts Studio and a range of local products and souvenirs such as the Royal Sussex Traditional Trug and Eastbourne Bag for Life, the resort’s website is the number one portal for any visitor interested in a trip to the East Sussex resort.
