Panoramic Views of the Rugged Maine Coast from Above

What Could Be More Adventurous Than flying? I went with Dave on one of these trips, and it was amazing. The glider is such a different experience from a regular airplane. You really feel like you are flying. Imagine soaring like a bird, gliding on air currents and having the kind of spectacular views of the islands of midcoast Maine, Penobscot Bay and the coast from Bar Harbor to Wiscasset, with Mt. Katahdin , Mt. Washington, and Sugarloaf Mt. in the distance that only birds usually enjoy. The spiritsouring pilots, Dave Miramant & Steve Larmore with a combined total of over 25,000 flight hours have been at it for over thirty years. There's one trip where you can even take the controls! Feel like a kid on a roller coaster for the first time, experience breath-taking views of Maine's unique coastline and a fantastic display of color and geography. * info@spiritsoaring.org Call 207-319-9514 * Spirit Soaring * 174 Mountain St. Camden, ME 04843
