After the emotion of the takeoff, a few minutes to feel like a bird and to walk your eyes on your aerial trajectory:
-overflight of magical proximities (at the same time intimist and detached...) of the wooded slopes, colored cliffs, odorous garrigues and perched villages, Moustiers Sainte Marie, Aiguines.
-in visual on your line of horizon, the plateau of Valensole and its mosaic of agricultural cultures, the blue lagoon of the lake of Sainte Croix.
-The flight over the last section of the Gorges du Verdon leading to the lake is conditioned by the choice of the site in view of the meteorological/aerological context of the day.

The answers to your questions when the flight takes place on AIGUINES
Where is my meeting point?
Either at the entrance of the Galetas campsite, in front of the grocery store and the restaurant "la guinguette du Lac" or at the Galetas beach, next to the firemen's aid station. We land at this place. There is no physical reception, do not look for "boutique" or "reception"! You will have to introduce yourself to one of the instructors who will pose in tandem. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR PHONE WITH YOU, so that you can be reached at the time of the meeting.
How do I get to the takeoff?
You will go up to the take-off in our shuttle: a mouse grey WW or in a dark grey Toyota 4X4. The ride lasts about 25 minutes. There are no seats for accompanying persons.
Do I have to walk to take off?
In Aiguines, we have two take-offs that we choose according to the wind direction. For one, the walk lasts 1/4h and the other 5/6 minutes.
What do the companions do while waiting for my flight?
Accompanying persons must stay at the landing, except for minors, there is no parking lot big enough for us and the accompanying persons.
Where is the landing?
At the beach of Galetas, where you had rendezvous. In some very specific cases, we may land at the beach of Chabassole (entry of north wind) or before landing (flight shortened for x reasons)
How long does my activity last in total?
The time of ascent, walking and flight, count 1h to 1H15. EXCEPT that we can expect a more or less long time of favorable conditions at takeoff, which can thus lengthen the overall duration of the activity. A parameter that we cannot predict. We try as much as possible to warn people by sms in case of delay on the following flights.
Why is my flight transferred to Moustiers?
Because the wind orientation of the day of your appointment does not allow you to fly on this site (mainly South wind).
