DESCRIPTION
There’s not many places in the world that are more picturesque than Tropical North Queensland. Home to the beautiful Great Barrier Reef and the equally as impressive Whitsunday Islands, this area is truly a little slice of paradise! What better way to take in all the beauty of this area than an up to 15,000ft tandem Airlie Beach skydive above the waters of the incredible Whitsunday Islands! Falling to views of crystal clear waterways, pure white sanded beaches, and an abundance of reef clusters, you’ll be blown away by the sights you’ll witness.
With the drop zone in the heart of Queensland’s most popular tourism spot, experience the thrill of freefall at over 220km/hr for up to 60 seconds! After the immediate adrenalin inducing fall is over, relax as you float towards the ground under the canopy of your parachute taking in the mind blowing panoramic views surrounding you. Simply wear closed in shoes and some comfortable clothing and prepare yourself for a moment you’ll never want to end. With a number of different photo and video package options available also, there are plenty of resources to ensure you never forget this incredible experience!
