Skydiving · Mont-Saint-Michel
The essentials
Abeille Parachutisme runs one tandem skydive above Mont-Saint-Michel: 342 €, 2h total, open to everyone regardless of experience. You jump in tandem with a certified instructor, so zero prior training is required. Book early, especially in summer, since a single slot per session fills fast. If the iconic silhouette of Mont-Saint-Michel from freefall altitude is the target, this is the only option on the market, and the 5/5 rating across 5 reviews confirms it delivers.
The offer
Frequently asked questions
What's the most intense moment of the jump?
Freefall is the peak: you exit the aircraft and your body accelerates hard before the parachute opens and the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel spreads out beneath you. That transition from freefall to canopy flight is where most first-timers say their brain fully catches up with what just happened.
Do you need to be afraid of heights to enjoy this?
Fear of heights at ground level rarely translates to altitude. At jump altitude, there is no visual reference close enough to trigger the usual vertigo response. Most first-time jumpers report that the sensation is overwhelming rather than scary in the traditional sense.
What is the total time commitment for this experience?
The full session runs 2 hours from arrival at the Aéroclub des Grèves du Mont Saint Michel in Le Val-Saint-Père. That includes briefing, gear fitting, the flight up and the jump itself. Actual freefall lasts a fraction of that total time.
Is the 342 € price all-inclusive?
The listed price of 342 € covers the tandem jump with Abeille Parachutisme. Video and photo packages, if available, are typically sold separately. Confirm directly with the operator at booking to know exactly what is included.
