Green light for S Bunbury hang gliders

Hang gliders will continue to soar over Bunbury following Bunbury City Council's decision to extend a lease of a South Bunbury beach.

The Hang Gliding Association of WA was granted a five-year lease, at $500 a year, to use the beach next to the Mangles Street carpark for pilots to land.

The council agreed to extend the lease because there were no reports of accidents or complaints during a trial.

Mayor Gary Brennan welcomed the decision to extend the lease.

"These pilots get a unique view of our beautiful beaches and they are to be congratulated," he said.
