Access notes
Current paragliding discovery material identifies Koko Crater as an unregulated PG site within the public Koko Head Regional Park landscape. No official paragliding permit, maintained launch, or guaranteed access route is published. Use only open public routes and verify current City park rules, posted closures, safe launch surface, and an unobstructed legal landing plan before flying.
Site rules
  • Fly only when the public route and intended launch and landing areas are open; obey all current City park signs and closures.
  • Do not land at the lifeguarded beach.
  • Do not treat the regional pin or public-park designation as permission to cross closed, leased, utility, preserve, or other restricted land.
  • This is an unpowered PG record; no paramotor use is established.
Launch directions
SE
Direction notes
Current site material identifies gentle-to-moderate southeast flow; it does not publish a broader safe heading range or wind-speed limit.
Safety notes
  • The site is described as working only on rare gentle-to-moderate southeast-wind days.
  • Depending on wind strength and direction, conditions can change from easy ridge soaring to strong, turbulent thermic air.
  • The source does not publish a surveyed launch, approved landing zone, rating, wind-speed ceiling, bailout, parking route, or emergency procedure; verify each locally before flight.
  • Public recreation areas and beaches can be crowded; do not launch or land when bystanders cannot be kept clear.
Additional notes
Included as a current public/unregulated PG lead, not as an officially permitted or maintained launch. The approximate pin and warnings preserve the distinction. PPG is false because no powered-flight evidence was found.
Map pin (approximate field)
The point is the legacy ParaglidingEarth site coordinate corroborated by a current area-level listing; it is not a surveyed launch, access path, parking point, or landing zone.
Navigation warning
Approximate unregulated-area pin only. Do not navigate to or launch from the coordinate without verifying the current public route, land boundary, posted rules, exact safe launch, and legal landing area.
