Soar Above Algarve: Tandem Skydive Experience

Imagine lifting off in a turbine powered plane at about 15000 feet above the Atlantic, heart racing as you get ready for your tandem jump. This experience lets you enjoy a thrilling free fall for around seventy seconds before your instructor opens the parachute and you glide toward a white sand beach on the Portimão coast. From the sky you see the Algarve coast stretching beneath you with golden sands, cliffs, rock formations and the clear blue lagoon waters that make this region one of the most unforgettable places to visit. You do not need previous experience since a professional instructor handles every step. It feels intense, energetic and surprisingly peaceful at the same time which makes it one of the best things to do in Algarve for first timers who want pure adventure.

Tips Before You Jump

Before joining this Algarve activity keep these simple ideas in mind

  • Wear comfortable clothes and secure closed shoes suitable for high altitude wind
  • Bring sunglasses and a light jacket because the air can feel colder in the plane
  • Do not carry loose items since everything must be fastened properly
  • Choose morning or late afternoon for softer light and usually calmer air
  • Arrive at least thirty minutes early for check in and paperwork
With these tips you will feel relaxed and ready to enjoy your skydiving experience from start to finish.

Unfortunately, my experience with skydiving was not what I had hoped for. The views during the jump were impressive, but the free-fall didn't last as long as I had anticipated.
