Skydiving in Sant Fruitós de Bages (Barcelona)

Join us in Barcelona and experience the pure adrenaline rush of a tandem skyive, with jumps from 3000m (9800ft) or 4000m (13000ft).

A tandem jump is by far the easiest and safest choice for your first skydive. No previous experience is necessary and you will be attached to one of our expert instructors at all times. The instructor will lead you through each step of the way - the jump, the freefall, the opening of the parachute and the landing.

Our aerodrome is located in Sant Fruitós de Bages - just 50 minute's drive from the great city of Barcelona, where the clear blue skies and delightful Mediterranean climate invariably make for perfect skydiving conditions.

What do you get?

• First you'll meet your qualified instructor and receive a safety briefing, where we explain exactly what you can expect from your jump and provide you with all the necessary equipment: harness, helmet and glasses. (15 mins duration)
• Next our plane will fly us to our jumping altitude. (12 mins duration). This is the point when the doors open, and the wind enters and swirls around inside the plane. It's hard to put into words how exciting and nerve-wracking this moment is!
• Still securely attached to your instructor, you'll make your way to the door and... JUMP! Before you know it, you'll be plummeting towards the earth, enjoying the incredible sensation of your body in freefall.
• Jumps from 3000m (9800ft): freefall lasts 30 seconds (approx).
• Jumps from 4000m (13000ft): freefall lasts 60 seconds (approx).

Free pick-up service

Want to jump but don't have a car? No problem! Just take one of the many regular trains from Barcelona to Manresa and we'll pick you up from the station at no extra cost. If you're interested in this service, please let us know when you make your booking.

Video & photos

If you book a video recording of your jump, your instructor will film your adventure on a handycam, capturing your emotions and excitement at each step of the way, from the briefing and the plane journey through to the skydive itself. They’ll even record your post-jump reaction for posterity!
