Take off from the mountains and land on the coast. Fly as a tandem pair with an instructor, so even first-timers can enjoy it
About 40 minutes by car from Fukuoka and Hakata. A paragliding experience where you take off from a takeoff point in the Itoshima mountains and land on the coast. You fly as a tandem pair with an instructor. Because the instructor handles all piloting, even first-time paragliders can participate. The mountain scenery viewed from above and the wind rising from the sea—a side of Itoshima unknown from the ground unfolds before you. Depending on the time of day, sunset flights through the twilight are also available (sunset may not be visible depending on weather and timing). The fee includes instruction, rental of all equipment, and safety management. Please bring comfortable clothing, gloves or work gloves, and your health insurance card.

“Nice view, fabulous pilot instructor and a team of excellent team members. 👍”
“We had an amazing paragliding experience with Asobina! 🪂 A special thank you to Yoshiki Kuremoto-san for making our experience memorable. The staff were friendly, supportive, and professional, which helped us feel comfortable and enjoy the adventure. The views were breathtaking, and flying through the sky was an incredible experience! We had so much fun and would definitely recommend Asobina to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure in Japan. Thank you so much! 😊”
“Highly recommended! The experience was incredible, and the views were breathtaking”
“It was a fantastic experience, a real escape from everyday life! The sea was so blue and beautiful, and on the other side of the ocean, there was a jungle-like landscape – it felt like I was abroad! ✨ I'm not good with heights or roller coasters, so I was a little nervous at first, but once I got on, it was very stable and not scary at all! I enjoyed the scenery while experiencing it, and it was very refreshing. ☺️ I'd love to come again! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!”

“My first time paragliding! I went with my 6-year-old child, and the bottom line is: both adults and 6-year-olds can really enjoy it! The instructor was very kind and fun, adjusted the height and pace to suit us, so we felt safe the whole time! You can see all of Fukuoka, and above all, the sea below was stunningly beautiful! Just my personal opinion, but they also take good care of people who are scared of heights but still want to see a beautiful view or try something new, so I truly recommend it! I'm happy there's one more spot I'd definitely recommend to visitors from other prefectures and from overseas! I'll be back!”

“I went paragliding in Itoshima and it became a truly wonderful memory! The instructor, who has 30 years of experience, supported me carefully, so I could fly with peace of mind even on my first time. The view of Itoshima's sea from the sky was more beautiful than I imagined, so moving I was lost for words. The fun outweighed the nerves, and the time flew by. The staff were all kind, and I'd love to come back in a different season. If you're going paragliding in Itoshima, this is a place I can recommend with confidence!”

“My first paraglide was the best! It was right next to the beach I always go to, so I gave it a try. I got to be a bird in the sky! If you've never tried it, go now! The staff were wonderful too!”

“It was my first time paragliding, but the instructor explained everything carefully and supported me, so I could take on the challenge with peace of mind! The view the moment we took off was truly moving, a special experience of seeing Itoshima's blue sea and nature from the sky. It was less scary than I expected, and I enjoyed the feeling of flying freely through the air. The staff were all kind, and the fun atmosphere from start to finish left an impression. Highly recommended as an activity to enjoy along with sightseeing in Itoshima! I'd love to do it again if I get the chance.”
