Practical information

An adrenalin-pumping experience awaits you in Normandy with a parachute jump in Le Havre between cliffs and beaches. Take home the video and photos of your skydiving experience in Le Havre.

Course of events

- Meet at the Abeille Parachuting centre at Le Havre-Octeville airport

- Video briefing on safety instructions, followed by fitting of equipment (suit and harness) and a ground rehearsal with a tandem pilot.

- Boarding the plane with your tandem pilot, equipped with goggles or over-glasses if you wear corrective lenses

- The plane ride lasts around 20 minutes. You'll be able to admire breathtaking Normandy landscapes between land and sea

- Jump: at an altitude of around 3,300 metres, the aircraft doors open and you get into position to jump. Strapped to your carrier, you're off for a free fall at 200km/h lasting 35 to 45 seconds! Then, at 1,500 metres, your pilot opens the parachute for a 5 to 6 minute flight under canopy

- Landing: raise your legs and land gently on the airport. On your return to the hangar, the team will give you a T-shirt and a diploma. You will receive the video and pictures of your flight as soon as possible
