Have you always dreamt of skydiving? Skydive Seven Algarve offers you a unique, whole-day experience! Our skydiving pros will pick you up in the centre of Lisbon and drive to Cascais from where we will fly to Alvor, where one of the highest skydives in Europe takes place. During the 70 second free fall, you will see the clear blue ocean and green nature of the Algarve. To provide you comfort during your skydiving experience, we follow the highest safety standards and our equipment and the planes are kept in the ideal shape. Join the skydiving experts and feel the freedom of flying high in the sky!
Programme- Meeting and preparation:We meet at our meeting point in the city centre of Lisbon at the agreed time. From there, our van takes you to Cascais Airport. Once there, you get to know your tandem master, the plane and the equipment. At the airfield, you also receive the safety briefing and learn about the rules you need to know for your skydive jump. Your tandem master will explain you in-depth every part of the upcoming activity. You can ask us everything and we will happily tell you all the details so you feel comfortable in the air. Then, you will be ready to depart to Portimão where your skydive will take place.
- Flight and jump:Our ride in the plane lasts around 30 minutes. Before reaching the jump altitude, your tandem master does the final safety check and reviews the freefall body position - "arch" and "fit legs" for landing with you. When the door opens, you feel the wind and the noise of the plane. Then the pilot reduces the speed which is the sign to jump. You will enjoy 70 seconds of free fall and you will reach a speed of around 200 km/h. Then your instructor will deploy the main parachute.
- Landing and return: Your paragliding panorama flight will last 5-7 minutes. In order to land, your tandem master will perform a landing pattern just like an aircraft with the use of the predetermined downwind. You will be instructed to lift your legs to land softly. We land at the airfield in the area of the airport. After the jump, you will have time to relax on the beach, have lunch or see a glimpse of the beautiful Algarve region. The flight back to Lisbon is scheduled at 5:20 PM. From Cascais Airport, our van will take you back to the city centre where you will arrive around 6:15 PM.
