Sarangani Paraglide is the first and the only paragliding company in Mindanao. It is located at Safii Ranch Paragliding Fly site in Barangay Seguil, Maasim, Sarangani Province. The site is about 950-feet above the sea level making it a perfect spot for paragliding because of its vast ridges and cliffs needed for the foot launch.

Paragliding, as you know it, is an air adventure that uses a foot launched glider aircraft that solely relies on wind conditions.

There are only three paragliding sites in the Philippines. One is in Carmona, Cavite, the second one is in Bontoc, Mountain Province and third the Sarangani Paraglide in Sarangani Province. Read More: http://drewgarciatravelog.blogspot.com/2017/09/sarangani-paragliding-experience.html

The Sarangani Paragliding experience is a breath taking view of Sarangani Bay. The azure sky compliments the blush bay and warm wind will caress your face. It’s a wonderful, extra ordinary flight. Maasim also hosted the IPAC (International Paragliding Accuracy Competition), PGAWC (Paragliding Accuracy World Cup) and the National Paragliding Fun Fly and Costumed Flying Event.
