Hang Gliding and Paragliding

Torrey Pines Gliderport. Perched on the cliffs overlooking the ocean north of La Jolla, this is one of the most spectacular spots to hang glide in the world. It's for experienced pilots only, but hang-gliding and paragliding lessons and tandem rides for inexperienced gliders are available. Those who'd rather just watch can grab a bite at the Cliffhanger Cafe, which offers incredible views of the Pacific and of the paragliders taking off. During the summer, there's live music on weekends. 2800 Torrey Pines Scenic Dr., La Jolla, California, 92037. 858/452–9858; www.flytorrey.com. Paragliding from $175; hang gliding from $225.
