Paragliding In Thailand

[frankyj]

Has anyone on this forum ever done the paragliding courses in Rayong?

I just want to get some info on it if anyone can help..

Planning on coming over for a month in Sept and doing the full certification. Not too sure where to stay though - Either in Rayong or Pattaya?

Does anyone know of any other reputable places that offer paragliding courses in LOS?

Thanks for any help

If the course you are considering is the one shown here:

Then I am sure that your can find inexpensive accommodations in Bang Chang, which is closer to Satahip than Rayong, but Pattaya will give you more selection but a longer commute to the training site

That being said, I have seen a sign for a Para motoring Club in Ban Amphur

I hope you mean paragliding & not those obnoxious paramotors that seem popular nowadays, flying very low & slow, with their very loud droning engines. Enjoying sitting out in the garden, early morning or sundown, there'll always be those a$$holes interupting the peace & quiet
