Playa de Langre

Playa de Langre, on Spain's Cantabrian coast near Santander, was historically flown from a small clifftop launch right at the main beach access, where pilots would take a short run and jump the stair railing to get airborne. Flying here is now explicitly forbidden, posted on-site. There is no legal launch or landing available at this location today, so anyone considering a flight along this stretch of coast should look for an alternative, permitted site nearby rather than attempting to fly from here.

Check conditions before you fly

A forecast for the valley is not a forecast for the launch. Before heading to Playa de Langre, read the wind and thermals for the site itself, confirm the day's rules with the local club, and remember the standing rule — when in doubt, don't launch. In the free OutDare app you can open Playa de Langre with a 7-day forecast built from high-resolution weather models, see who else has been flying, and get there with offline maps.
