Frequently asked questions
What does the jump from 3,000 m actually feel like?
Freefall at 3,000 m gives you a shorter freefall window than higher-altitude jumps, but the view is the payoff: the Pacific Ocean, the lagoon, and the outline of Tahiti spread out below you as you drop. The canopy ride down is where you get to take it all in.
Do you need any experience to jump?
No. The jump is tandem format, meaning you're secured to a certified instructor throughout. The physical level is listed as 'Everybody welcome,' so no prior skydiving background is required.
Is 561 € the price per person?
Yes. The listed price of 561 € is per person for the tandem skydive. Confirm exactly what's included (video, photos, gear) when you book directly with the operator.
Is the jump done in French or English?
The operator runs the experience in both French and English, so briefings and instructions are available in either language.

Practical info
Equipment
Wear comfortable, close-fitting clothes and lace-up shoes with ankle support. The half-day format means no need for a full kit bag, but leave loose jewelry and bulky items behind as the harness requires a snug fit.
Getting there
The meeting point is directly at Fa'a'ā International Airport (Aéroport international Fa'a'ā) in Faaa, served by the main international terminal for Tahiti, roughly 7 km from Papeete city center.
