Unlike flying activities that depart from solid ground, taking off and landing on water eliminates the common problem of accidentally flying into a really clean window. Learn the aqueous advantage with this Groupon.

$ 85 for a 45-Minute Powered Hang-Gliding Lesson with Video ($ 170 Value)

An FAA-certified flight instructor takes visitors soaring above the landscape in an amphibious hang glider, all while an HD camera captures the flight to transfer onto a DVD to take home.

Amphibian Air

The FAA–certified Cygnet II–powered hang glider bearing the Amphibian Air stamp gives riders a bird’s-eye view of Savannah and the outlying Low Country as they zip about during guided lessons. An FAA–certified instructor takes the front seat in the trike’s open-air cockpit directly ahead of the student and demonstrates the basics of flying before allowing his pupil to take the controls if conditions permit. A certificate of training documents the flight for the student, which can be used toward a sport-pilot license or to imbue confidence when flying over a shark. Amphibian Air recommends wearing comfortable clothing and making reservations for sunrise or sunset any day of the week, as those are some of the best times for a smooth flight.
