As it is somewhat complicated, we will focus on telling you everything you need to know before doing the activity and we will help you with this short video so you can see for yourself what it is like to jump in a parachute in Castellón:

How is the activity developed?

For people who have not jumped before and therefore do not have any parachutist title they will have to perform a tandem jump, that is, jump on the instructor. As soon as you arrive at the aerodrome, you will have to equip and weigh yourself, the maximum weight including clothes, jumpsuit and harness must be 100 kg, people who exceed this figure will not be able to jump. People who measure more than 2 meters, can not do the activity either. This is due to the fact that being a jump directed by the monitor that goes from the packet, it must have enough mobility to be able to perform the maneuvers both during the flight and during the landing.

Then, there will be an explanatory briefing where they will give you the basic instructions that you should know about skydiving and how you should act at all times. And now, yes, the good starts.

You will climb the plane, and during a flight of approximately 13 minutes you will reach 4,000 meters high, the door will open and you and the paratrooper will jump together. You will enjoy approximately 1 minute of free fall and then the parachute will be deployed to descend to about 20 km/h for about 7 minutes.

And you know the best of everything? That this you will do just 50 meters from the beach, you will live a brutal adrenaline rush with the sea of Castellón in the background. When you land you still will not believe that you have been able to jump…
