Why not view Miyako Island's crystal clear waters from the sky by paragliding or parasailing?
Marine sports such as snorkeling and diving are not the only ways to enjoy the sea of Miyakojima!
This article introduces the attraction of parasailing (paragliding) on Miyako Island.
The parachute used for parasailing is circular in shape. It is characterized by its stable reception of wind pressure and minimal swaying.
The parachute used in paragliding is rectangular (oval) in shape. It flies by soaring slowly into the air using the slope of the altitude.
Parasailing involves taking off into the sky while wearing a parachute and being pulled by a boat.
Paragliders wear parachutes developed for gliding and open them while on the ground to take off into the sky using momentum down an incline and air resistance.
