Take-off description
Easy take off on grassy slope. Depending on wind speed launching both from the beach and from the top possible. CAUTION - when leaving the take off area and heading east towards the lighthouse, make sure you have adequate altitude, as landing on that part of the beach is not an option - it´s not even a beach, but only large rocks..
