Full description

After pickup from your hotel in Swakopmund, arrive at the skydiving club and receive a short briefing from your tandem master. Get kitted out in your harness and watch as other participants make the leap. Once your name is called, get into the plane with your instructor and enjoy a scenic 15-minute flight. See theĀ unique Atlantic Ocean where it meets the Namib Desert Dunes - the world's oldest desert.

Summon all your courage to leap out of the plan attached by a harness to your qualified instructor. Experience the rush of a 40-second free fall, then float through the air for a few minutes after the parachute is deployed. Take in all the incredible views suspended from your parachute for approximately 7 minutes until finally, the instructor lands you safely on Mother Earth. Once you hit the ground, you’ll want to do it all over again.

Choose to take the skydive with a 35, 45, or 60-second freefall at increasing altitudes to really understand the thrill of this extreme sport.

I loved the experience in the skydiving club! Thank you everyone for making it possible. I can recommend it. Only thing was, I organized the arrival myself and it was not very easy to find also because I didn't get the info it was located at the airport and I would have liked to have some more information about the process during preparation. But besides that it was very amazing and I felt safe with my instructor at all times.
