We didn’t actually have the intention or know about paragliding when we headed to Aizkorri Beach. It was a spur of the moment decision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aizkorri Beach is pegged as the most exceptional beach in the town of Getxo because it has preserved its own dune system and rock formations. We didn’t realize this until subsequent visits to the beach.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We hung out at the beach for a while; and the kids and Neil enjoyed the cool water of the Bay of Biscay before they talked us into checking out the paragliding activities.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
