Some excellent sites for beginners and advanced pilots as well are all around the coast of Victoria. This picture has been taken flying Sunnyside Beach in Mt. Eliza. Frequented by drug dealers, policemen, homosexuals and PG pilots, it offers a beautiful view at Port Philip Bay. Unfortunately, it is flyable only in winter so the nearby nudist's beach can't be included in the attractions.
Flying over Mt. Buffalo in Bright is one of the special treats paraglider pilot can get. Bright is the most popular PG destination in Victoria. On a good day there is nothing unusual to see 50 or more paragliders in the air.

Rainbow Beach in QLD is one of the most relaxing places in Australia. Smooth coastal air lets you concentrate on the stunning views from up to 500 metres. Fraser island is just across the water.

Australia has beautiful
coastal sites and unique flatlands. But for flying in the "real" mountains you
have to go elsewhere. This is the Fiesh glacier in Switzerland.
