Both tours are operated by Verti'kal Jump Reunion from the same Bras de la Plaine bridge, at the same price of 95 € and the same 1h duration. The difference is pure mechanics: the classic bungee jump sends you straight down in free fall, while the pendular jump converts that vertical drop into a wide arc swing. At 115 m above the Bras de la Plaine gorge, both formats deliver serious exposure. Choose the classic bungee for the raw free-fall sensation. Go pendular if you want the drop followed by a sustained swinging rush that keeps you airborne longer. Both are rated 5/5 across 30 reviews.
Bungee jumping from the Bras de la Plaine bridge (115 m), Reunion Island
The classic bungee from 115 m delivers the purest free-fall sequence with no redirection, rated 5/5 by all 30 reviewers.
Pendular jump from the Bras de la Plaine bridge (115 m), Réunion Island
The pendular jump converts the 115 m drop into a sustained swing arc, extending the sensation well beyond the initial fall.
The bridge sits 115 m above the Bras de la Plaine gorge. That's one of the highest bungee platforms in the Indian Ocean region.
The instant you step off the edge. At 115 m, the free-fall phase lasts several seconds before the cord engages, which is where most jumpers describe the sharpest adrenaline spike.
The classic bungee drops you vertically and bounces you back up. The pendular jump redirects that energy into a horizontal swing, giving you a prolonged aerial arc over the gorge instead of a straight bounce.
Fear of heights is exactly what makes the jump intense. The 115 m drop is designed to trigger that reaction. Most participants report the anticipation on the bridge as harder than the jump itself.
Yes, both tours are 1h. That includes briefing, harnessing and the jump itself. The actual free-fall and rebound sequence lasts a fraction of that time, but the adrenaline window runs long after you land.
