Descrizione del decollo
Two options: Small sandy cliff launch area directly into ample lift, but tight landing and vehicles not as safe from potential criminal elements, or beach launch from small dune at the parking lot with better safety and ample safe landing.
Come arrivare
Take the N2 from Cape Town, then take the Baden Powell Drive offramp and turn south (right). Follow the road to the sea. Turn left into the large parking area opposite Swartklip Road (M49)
Meteo
Ideal wind is SSE-SSW, 18-24 km/h. More easterly or westerly winds begin to cause rolling rotor along the outcrops of the cliffs and poorer lift, which can impose danger. Beware of the wind strengthening swiftly, especially in the afternoon on hot days. Take sunscreen and sunglasses, especially in summer!
Regole / spazio aereo
Please note that this site is in the Cape Town CTR and requires permission from ATC to fly. They usually impose a limit of 300 ft.
Commenti
There is abundant lift when the conditions are good. With a little height, one can crossing the low spot at the parking area and soar the cliffs to the east as far as the tidal pools. No launching or landing anywhere other than the designated cliff or beach launch spots - this is a breeding area for sea birds. NB. It's a notorious crime hot spot! Most locals have stopped flying here
