DESCRIPTION: Mission Beach – No doubt the most gorgeous and idyllic place to have a skydive, magnificent rainforest that comes right down to the golden sands of a tropical palm fringed beach, Tropical Islands, the Great Barrier Reef and almost the best kept secret in Oz.
A tandem skydive is the best way to experience all the thrills of skydiving with the comfort of having a qualified instructor with you to operate the parachute and control the descent. Before boarding the aircraft, we train you about exit procedure, body position for freefall and landing. It only takes a few minutes training in our 5 star training facility at Tully airport.
No Experience is necessary to do a tandem skydive, so almost anyone can give it a go! This height has you freefalling for up to 60 seconds! Plenty of time to enjoy the awesome sensation of freefalling, before you take in the spectacular views around you whilst parachuting to the beach below. Then relax as you glide under your parachute for approximately 5 minutes, taking in the spectacular views of tropical islands, golden sand and the Great Barrier Reef on your way back down. Finally, you come back down to earth, with a soft landing on the beautiful Mission Beach.
