It was a fantastic experience.
We had a fantastic experience thanks to the professional and safe instruction by the pros. We felt completely safe throughout. Everyone was friendly and answered our questions competently. The two ladies at the reception during booking and check-in on the day of the jump were also super nice. We can recommend the entire team without reservation. Anyone who wants to do something extraordinary on vacation is in the best hands here. The view from high up over the Algarve coast was overwhelming. We will think about it for a long time.

LOOKING FOR A LIFECHANGING THRILL?
Would 10/10 recommend to any thrill seekers who love an adrenaline rush! This was my first time and everything was perfect from start to finish! The whole experience was run so smoothly with very nice people. Very efficient process, took all in all about 1.5 hrs. Small group size, only jumped with 4 other people. My instructor was very knowledgeable and comforting and gave very clear simple instructions. We paid for the external photo package and my videographer was amazing as well, he really set the vibes and brought the energy! Love this place, Skydive Algarve is THE place to choose! The feeling of pure weightlessness is indescribable! Everyone made the experience so enjoyable…I will definitely be skydiving again in my future!!

Will definitely skydive again
Such a surreal and incredible experience. For me the most nerve wracking part was waiting for our names to be called for the briefing however once those jumpsuits were on and we were headed to the plane it becomes so exciting!!! And falling out of that plane is an experience you cannot put into words so if you’re thinking of doing it, f* the fear and do it anyways! My guide Luis looked after me and told me everything I needed to know, kept me safe whilst having the time of my life. Loved it so much I’ll be doing it again!
Operator response
Thank you so much for sharing your incredible experience! 🪂 We love how you described the journey from the nervous anticipation to the excitement of stepping onto the plane, and you're absolutely right, freefall is something words can hardly do justice! We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Luís, who will be delighted to know he helped make your jump so memorable. We can't wait to welcome you back for round two! 🧡
