The Night Before
Get a good night’s sleep before your big jump, the epic adrenalin rush can be exhausting! You must not have consumed any drugs or alcohol in the eight hours preceding your skydive, and you cannot scuba dive 24 hours before skydiving.
Pick-ups / Check-in
If you’re staying in Cairns, pick-ups are offered from selected locations around the town.
The Jump
After checking-in it is time to transfer out to Cairns airport. Soar to 15’000 feet above the tropics and then, JUMP!
Enjoy a 60 second freefall before the serenity and silence of your 5-7 minute float under canopy back down to earth.
