What to expect
You'll depart Fremantle by ferry to Rottnest Island, where you'll meet your tandem instructor and go through safety briefing. You'll board the jump plane and ascend to altitude while taking in views across the coast and Perth skyline. At jump altitude, you'll exit the aircraft and freefall for up to 66 seconds before your parachute deploys, giving you a 5-minute canopy ride with clear sightlines across the island. You'll land on one of the island's beaches, then catch the return ferry back to Fremantle. Video and still photos aren't included but can be purchased on the day.

Good to know
This suits adventurous adults and teens (from age 16) who are comfortable with risk and want an adrenaline-focused island experience rather than a leisure visit. You need moderate fitness and good cardiovascular health — it's not suitable if you have a heart condition, seizure disorder, spinal injury, or poor heart health. Weight limit is 95 kg (some cases up to 110 kg with pre-approval). Skydiving is weather-dependent; you must call at least an hour before your ferry departure to confirm conditions. Pregnant travellers shouldn't jump. Parent or guardian must attend if you're under 18. Ferry from Fremantle is included; public transport to the departure point is available nearby. Check-in timing and exact flight times should be confirmed when booking.
