Description
The experience begins at Portimão airfield where you check in 30 minutes before your scheduled jump. After a safety briefing covering equipment and body positioning, you will gear up with a jumpsuit and harness, then board the plane for a 20-minute scenic ascent over Algarve’s coastline, including views of Alvor, Lagos, Portimão, and Praia da Rocha.
You will then jump from either 10,000 or 15,000 feet, freefalling at speeds over 200 km/h. Freefall lasts approximately 20 to 30 seconds from 10,000 feet, or 60 to 70 seconds from 15,000 feet, followed by 7 to 8 minutes under the open parachute. During descent, enjoy panoramic views until landing back at Portimão airfield, where instructors assist with gear removal.
About 30 minutes after landing, you will receive your professionally edited video and photo package by email. Original files can be requested if desired.
