About this tour
Strap in for a tandem skydive over Western Australia's most beloved island getaway. You'll climb to altitude with sweeping views across Perth's skyline and the coastline beyond, then freefall for up to 66 seconds alongside your instructor before a serene parachute descent to land on Rottnest's pristine beach. The whole experience takes around 2.5 hours from briefing to sand between your toes.

What to expect
You'll arrive for a ground briefing covering safety and body positioning, then board the jump aircraft for a steady climb to altitude. The door opens and you exit with your instructor harnessed close—those first seconds feel weightless and pure adrenaline. The freefall window lasts up to 66 seconds of genuine silence broken only by wind rush. Your chute deploys and suddenly the island spreads beneath you in crystalline detail. The final descent is calm and controlled, landing softly on sand with the Rottnest landscape stretching around you.
