FAQS
What Experience Do I Need to Try Skydiving for the First Time?
None at all! A tandem skydive is specifically designed for anyone wanting to try it out and because the instructor controls the parachute you can simply enjoy the experience.
Is There A Maximum Weight?
Yes, the standard weight limit for tandem skydives is 100kg. Individuals weighing between 100kg and 110kg may still be eligible to jump, upon evaluation by the Safety Officer (subject to an additional fee).
What About the Weather?
As much as we wish we could, we are not able to predict, nor control the weather. Although it’s normally pretty good for skydiving here in Portugal conditions like rain thick low cloud or very strong winds could stop us from jumping. Do bear in mind however that the weather can change considerably over the course of one day. We will only contact you to cancel skydives if the weather is particularly unsuitable, otherwise we normally advise you to arrive as scheduled as often we can take advantage of good weather periods during a seemingly bad day, however you are welcome to call us before setting off if you have any concerns about the conditions.
How Long Does it Take to Skydive?
Your tandem skydive experience should typically take 2 to 3 hours, but we recommend being prepared to spend over 4 hours with us (or the whole morning/afternoon period depending on the booked time) to allow for weather delays, restrictions on the airspace and/or general busy periods.
What’s the minimum age for tandem skydiving?
The minimum age for tandem skydiving is 16. Participants aged 16 or 17 must have parental consent. If the underage person is not accompanied by a parent on the day of the jump, the consent form must be signed by a parent and also signed and stamped by a lawyer or notary. Please contact us to request the required form.
I Have Been Scuba Diving - Can I Skydive?
If you have been scuba diving please refrain from booking a skydive for the 48h immediately after. If you have not yet but are planning to, it’s always advisable you skydive first and then scuba dive.
Can I cancel my booking if my plans change?
Yes. Most of our experiences allow for free cancellation up to a certain deadline. The exact terms are clearly displayed on the experience page before you complete your booking.
Is my booking confirmed immediately?
