The best hang gliding spot near Honolulu is Makapu'u. It is on the southeast corner of the island of Oahu, about 15 miles from Honolulu. Most of the flying is done there along the cliffs between the lighthouse and Waimanalo beach.

I don't think there is an official age requirement to hang glide. But there is an ability rating system from 1-4, from beginner to expert, which is signed off by a certified instructor.You need a certain rating to fly most spots. An average new glider costs about $3000.
