The Skydive Algarve drop zone is open 365 days a year and we are committed to flying a fast turbine aircraft to 14,000ft (4300m), offering one of the highest altitudes for skydiving in Portugal and one of the best skydiving experiences with spectacular views over The Algarve's beautiful coastline. Skydive Algarve makes up part of the Swallow Group, which also includes Skydive Hibaldstowe in the UK and Skydive Spain near Seville.
Our staff include eight full-time highly experienced skydiving instructors who between them speak six languages, allowing us to welcome an international clientele and offer AFF training in multiple languages.
The Swallow Group drop zones, owned by a British skydiving family, are well-known for flying hard and flying high with a reputation for efficiency and excellent safety standards. The first of the Swallow Group Drop zones was founded over 20 years ago!
A tandem jump is the ideal way to try skydiving for the first time without any experience needed at all. All our expert tandem instructors have thousands of skydives and you will jump using a large parachute specifically designed for two people.
Securely harnessed to your qualified tandem skydiving instructor you will experience the thrill and excitement of freefall and enjoy the breath-taking sea views over the coastline of Southern Portugal. There’s a short ride in our specialist parachuting aircraft before you take an exhilarating leap from 14,000ft (4300m) reaching terminal velocity at around 120mph! Your instructor will then open the tandem parachute after 60 seconds of free-falling and fly you safely back to earth.
We offer an optional outside video and photo package so you can take the memory of the most exhilarating experience of your life home to show your friends and family.
