Tandem Dive

Skydiving

Skydiving over Hvar Island is a special Experience, offering views over crystal blue waters of Dalmatian archipelago below. The flight to altitude takes about 20 minutes, which allows you plenty of time to enjoy the breathtaking views. Then you JUMP! When you're back on solid ground, relax in the shade while your video is prepared.

For true adrenaline seekers only! This special Experience offers views over crystal blue waters of Adriatic in the safe hands of your expert instructor.

What to expect

If you’ve never skydived before, it’s hard to know what to expect – and it’s an Experience difficult to put into words! Freefalling is a sensation beyond your everyday "earthly" experience, giving you a sense of weightlessness you can’t find elsewhere.

For those who want to experience parachuting without prior training or a medical exam, this tandem skydiving Experience is the ideal choice. You'll jump attached to a licensed and experienced instructor, allowing you to enjoy the exhilaration of skydiving firsthand!

Preparation

After completing the necessary paperwork, we begin the jump preparations. The entire process takes about 20 minutes. Your tandem instructor will teach you everything you need to know about the jump you'll be making together.

The three key aspects are:

  • Behaviour on the plane, exiting, and separation from the aircraft
  • Body position during freefall
  • Landing position – legs raised

Flight

The flight lasts about 20-25 minutes and it is beautiful!

Your tandem instructor will conduct another round of safety checks and review the procedures you learned on the ground. On the plane, your instructor will securely attach you to their harness system. If the aircraft has a door, it will be opened a few minutes before the jump.

Even if you've been calm so far, the wind speed and noise will start to have an effect. The tandem instructor will lean out the door to find the optimal spot for exiting and to give final instructions to the pilot.

Exiting

Time to jump! You will notice that the sound of the engine has changed. The pilot has reduced the speed as a sign that the jump sequence can begin. Your instructor will guide you all the way. And finally, the inevitable “go!”

Freefall

The feeling of weightlessness, the sound of the wind… you are in freefall. 5 seconds after separating from the plane, the tandem instructor throws out a small parachute. This will reduce your speed to 200 km/h, which will be achieved in the twelfth second after your jump. After that, your speed will not be increased. This is the approximate speed of a skydiver in free fall. If you have a paid cameraman, you’ll see him straight ahead. Our cameramen are excellent skydivers with a great deal of experience of recording in free fall. Have you smiled yet? Now is the time for a big smile! You can watch your recordings on TV. You will have incredible recordings of this important memory, and every step of it, from training procedures to the landing.

Parachute

Everything beautiful comes to an end, your freefall included. When the time comes to open your parachute, the instructor will give you a signal. You will get a strange feeling of being pulled up, the wind noise suddenly goes away and you find yourself in a perfectly quiet and peaceful surrounding, gently gliding over the landscape. At this stage of your flight you will be able to talk with your instructor. You’ll be able to take the controls and feel what it’s like to fly a parachute. You can also go over the landing procedure again.

Landing

A simple procedure as you practised back down on the ground. Just raise your legs and your tandem instructor will do the rest. Be ready to give a huge smile for the friends waiting for you on the ground!

The team

Each team member is an expert in their field with years of experience, having turned their hobby into a professional business. The instructors' skilled hands will guide you through an unforgettable adventure that you'll cherish for a lifetime. They aim to share their passion with you and show you what makes skydiving so special, perfect, and liberating.
