Great instructors with small groups. We were there during Hurricane Debby, so our lesson was cut a little short. Who cares! We had a BLAST! I have so much more respect for the Wright Brothers caring that plane up the hill!

Our adventure at Jockey’s Ridge and Hang Gliding was incredible! Everything was flawless from when we checked in to when we checked out. The instructors went above and beyond to guarantee our safety and ensured that all five of my teenagers had the time of their lives. Fantastic experience!

So this had been one of those "bucket list" things to do for the past 25+ years. The only negative thing I could say is that I waited so long!
In terms of customer service, this crew knocked it out of the park. Linda was charming and helped pass the short wait time until it was my flight. Luke, my pilot, was energetic and knowledgeable. And the flight? OMFG!! It was incredible.
Maybe not the adrenaline rush that skydiving is, but this will get a little bump bump going in your chest. The views are amazing: you see the sound, the Banks, and the ocean beyond. Once we were gliding for a bit, Luke asked if I wanted to go for a little bit of excitement; I was game. Take the risk, but it will ruin rollercoasters for you. I definitely felt emotionally lighter when the experience was over. Definitely worth the price tag! Bring extra dollars if you want a video recording ($40 for one angle, $60 for two). And don't forget to tip your pilot. If you're smiling at the end of it, then they probably earned it.

We made a last-minute decision to try hang gliding for the first time and this experience did not disappoint! Jude and Harry were very patient with both of us and really did a great job of training us prior to trying this for the first time. We were a bit nervous in the beginning because we’re in our late 50s, but this is definitely something you can do even if you’re not young and spry. I would highly recommend this if you’re in the Outer Banks.

The flight instructors were very patient with the group of 5 we were a part of. Each person got 5 flights down the dune. There was good wind. You never felt scared because they went right beside you giving instructions the whole way down! What a great way to check this off the bucket list!

My wife had her first hang-gliding experience with Kitty Hawk Kites and their tandem 2000' offering. From start to finish the team was incredible. Their experience and expertise makes you feel safe and focus on having fun. The view of the Outer Banks from the glider is breathtaking. We highly recommend it. The runway is on-site at Sanctuary Vineyards, which is definitely worth a visit after your flight.

This was a fun and amazing experience! Very safe. Our guide was knowledgeable. You actually get to steer the glider! Really neat to watch how the ultra light plane tow the glider in the air.

My husband and I decided on hang gliding as a fun activity for our tenth anniversary trip. The staff was very friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. The instructions provided are simple and you always have an instructor with you. We felt very safe the whole time. Would definitely recommend!

This was a stellar experience. Go in the morning when it’s not quite as hot because you’re going to be doing ALOT of walking up dunes.
But the guides were professional, kind, and funny.
Stellar family experience
(Our group ranged from 7-45)

How high can you go with the flight school? And can you do just a tandem with someone to really get high?
Rédigé le 7 avril 2021
Hi Roger!
On the dunes, the average flight will be 5-15 feet above the ground. We also offer tandem hang gliding lessons where you and an instructor are towed up to 2000 feet or a mile high.

I'm interested in the roughly $100 class with 5 flights. I see they have a kids and an adult class. Are they separate though or is it an option to sign my family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) up together in one class?
Rédigé le 22 janvier 2017
You all can sign up for the class, the kid's classes may not be set up online since they require extra instructors to ensure a safe lesson for the kids. If you call 1-877-FLY-THIS our reservation professionals will be able to get a class scheduled no problem!
