Tandem Skydiving Private Tour

If you are looking for something exciting to do in Cartagena then we definitely have the thing for you! How does tandem skydiving over the Caribbean Ocean and landing on a beach sound to you?

Tandem skydiving is jumping out of an airplane securely harnessed to an experienced and accomplished certified instructor. You will experience free falling at 120 miles/190 kilometers per hour over the beautiful Caribbean Ocean and the stunning scenery of the Colombian coastline.

We start with a 6 am departure from Cartagena (5:00 am Santa Marta) and drive to our skydiving headquarters in the drop-zone. The airfield is 93 kms/58 miles north of Cartagena (1.5 hr drive) and 132 kms/82 miles (2.5 hr drive) south of Santa Marta.

After arrival to our spacious club house, you will be given a briefing by our highly experienced instructors, all with hundreds upon hundreds of jumps and properly certified by Colombia’s national air sports federation and FAI international certification. There’s a pool and comfortable leisure area close to the beach and landing zone where you can wait comfortable as other members of your group are whisked away in pairs to the airfield.

After the technical briefing, you do a 5 minute transfer from the club house to the hangar and board the Cessna 180. Before take-off, the instructors attach both harnesses to each other so you are completely secured. Then the excitement begins!

The Cessna is doorless and seatless, so you will be sitting on the floor attached to the instructor feeling the airplane rev up high and start hurtling down the runway as the ground whizzes by ever faster, until the moment of wheels up and a drop in your stomach!

You will climb for 20 minutes until reaching 10,000 feet with the Caribbean ocean and beaches way down below you, and up north the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta near the Caribbean coast. It is the highest coastal mountain range in the world, with several peaks exceeding 5,000 meters in elevation, an imposing and splendorous sight!

NOW IS WHEN THINGS GET REAL, TIME TO SKYDIVE CARTAGENA!

Now is when the instructor gives you the commands as described in the technical briefing and out the door you go! Free fall is 45 exhilarating seconds, then the instructor deploys the canopy and you begin your sightseeing flight to the beach, you can even fly the canopy for a while, the instructor will give you the commands and teach you how to do some basic turns and maneuvers.

Finally, you touch the ground on the beach, with a smile on your face that will stick for hours from the adrenaline.

And with all this great adventure you get a GoPro video for you to share and remember this experience of a lifetime!
