What to expect
You'll arrive at the Gold Coast dropzone for a ground-based safety and technique briefing. Once trained, you'll board the aircraft with your tandem instructor and ascend to jump altitude while taking in the coastal scenery. After freefall, your instructor deploys the parachute and you'll descend under canopy with views across the Gold Coast before touching down on Kirra beach.
The whole experience, from arrival through landing and debrief, takes around 2.5 hours. Video and photo packages can be arranged separately at the office if you want a record of the jump.
