Tandem skydive in Algarve for anyone ready to experience freefall for the first time or looking for the kind of one-off experience that genuinely changes how you see yourself and the world. Skydive Seven’s most popular jump takes you up to between 10,000 and 15,000 feet above the Algarve coastline, giving you 20 seconds of pure freefall before the parachute opens and the adventure continues for another seven minutes drifting through the skies of southern Portugal. Available year round, twelve months a year.
The jump is fully tandem, meaning you are harnessed to an experienced Skydive Seven instructor throughout the entire experience, from the moment you leave the aircraft to landing. Nuno Paulo and the Skydive Seven team come from backgrounds in aviation, extreme sports and entrepreneurship, with thousands of jumps between them and a commitment to the highest safety standards at every stage. Their approach is personal and welcoming, designed so that first-time jumpers feel genuinely supported rather than just processed through an experience. Every detail of the operation reflects that standard.
