Wuzhizhou Island has recently introduced a paragliding experience, adding a thrilling new dimension to its tourism offerings. This launch further strengthens the low-altitude economy industry chain, giving visitors an exciting way to explore the island from above.

Visitors can now soar over the azure seas, pristine beaches, and lush vegetation of Wuzhizhou Island under the guidance of professional instructors.

Originating in Europe in the 1970s, paragliding was invented by mountaineers as a means of quickly descending and has since evolved into a globally popular extreme sport. It is suitable for visitors aged 12 and above who are healthy and enjoy adventure.

Wuzhizhou Island has been attracting global tourists with its unique natural landscapes and diverse tourism offerings, making it a benchmark for tropical island tourism in China.

Since the opening of the paragliding project, this new activity has quickly become a hot attraction on Wuzhizhou Island, drawing numerous visitors to experience it. A visitor from Beijing named Li was among the first to try it out.

"This was my first time trying paragliding, and the feeling of overlooking Wuzhizhou Island from high above was truly breathtaking! Although I was a bit nervous initially, the instructor was very professional, and I felt safe throughout. This is one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life!" Li said.

As pioneers in island tourism innovation, Wuzhizhou Island is committed to enhancing visitor experiences through innovative tourism products. The area has been developing its low-altitude economy for several years, with a diverse product system now in place that includes helicopter island tours, water jetpacks, and parasailing. The addition of the paragliding project further enhances the three-dimensional "sea, land, and air" experiential scene.
