Para Sailing - Torrey Pines



The dot above the hills is a para-sailer. The wind off the ocean hits the hills and goes up creating a steady updraft. People launch from the park and glide back and forth and then land back at the glider park. If the winds are right, a person can stay up a long time. At times, there can easily be 20+ gliders in the air.
