You will climb to around 10,000ft above Perranporth, feel the rush of freefall and glide under canopy with panoramic coastal views on one of the UK's most scenic jump sites. 🪂 Key Details Experience level: Beginner (first tandem; no prior skydiving needed) Altitude: Around 10,000ft Booking options: Friday, weekend, bank holiday and seasonal open-week dates via our live calendar Media: Optional GoPro handycam, outside cameraman and VIP packages when you book 🎯 What to Expect After check-in and your safety briefing, you will gear up with your instructor and join the aircraft for the climb to jump altitude. Freefall is followed by a canopy ride with time to enjoy the views before landing back at the airfield. Allow the full day where possible because weather and load sequencing can affect timings. Your certificate is presented after landing, and media packages are delivered to your phone when you add one at booking or on jump day. 📍 Location We jump from Perranporth Airfield at Higher Trevellas near St Agnes, the only drop zone in Cornwall. The airfield sits close to the north coast, so your climb and canopy ride often include sweeping views over beaches, cliffs and the Atlantic. The meeting point for tandem students is at the airfield address in TR5 0XS. Follow booking instructions for parking and check-in on jump day rather than arriving without a confirmed slot. ✅ Prerequisites Tandem skydiving is aimed at healthy adults and teenagers meeting British Skydiving participation rules. You must be able to understand the briefing, lift your legs for landing and follow your instructor's directions in the aircraft and under canopy. If you are pregnant, have a heart or lung condition, recent surgery or other medical concerns, speak to us before booking. Weight limits apply for equipment fit and safety. ⭐ Why Choose Us We have welcomed jumpers since 2005 with a close-knit, family-run team focused on making nervous first-timers feel at ease. Instructors and ground crew know every regular and every first jump matters. Combining Cornwall's only skydive location with a reputation for scenic jumps means you are seeing the county from a perspective few visitors ever get, on a properly organised tandem day you will remember for years. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Pre-jump safety briefing with a qualified tandem instructor Tandem jump from up to 10,000ft attached to a British Skydiving-rated instructor Harness, jumpsuit, goggles and all skydiving equipment for the jump Canopy ride with coastal views over Cornwall Certificate presented after your jump ### What’s not included GoPro handycam, outside cameraman and VIP media packages (optional add-ons when you book) Transport to and from the meeting point Personal travel insurance ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### Which days can I book a tandem skydive? Availability follows our live online calendar, including dedicated Friday, weekend, bank holiday and seasonal open-week slots. When you book, choose the date type that matches the day you want to jump. If your preferred date is not showing, contact us via Adventuro chat and we can help you find the next available jump day at Perranporth Airfield. ### How long should I allow on jump day? Skydiving is weather dependent, so we ask you to keep the day reasonably free rather than rushing off afterwards. Briefing, aircraft loads and any waiting for suitable conditions can vary, especially at busy weekends. Your confirmation email will outline arrival timing. Factor in travel to Perranporth Airfield, parking and time to complete check-in before your scheduled load boards the aircraft. ### What is included in my tandem booking? Your booking covers the tandem skydive itself: the safety briefing, all equipment, the flight to altitude, freefall and canopy ride with your instructor, plus your certificate after landing. Photo and video packages are optional. You can add a GoPro handycam, outside cameraman or VIP combined package when you book, or ask the team on arrival if you prefer to decide on the day. ### Can I add photos or video when I book? Yes. When you book through our live calendar you can add a GoPro handycam media package, an outside cameraman media package, or the VIP package that combines both. Each package includes 100+ stills and three edited video clips (Full Adventure, Best bits and Insta edit), usually delivered to your phone within minutes of landing. You can also compare options with the team at check-in if you have not chosen a package yet. ### What should I wear? Wear comfortable clothes and lace-up trainers that will stay secure in the aircraft and on landing. We provide the jumpsuit, harness and goggles you need for the jump itself. Avoid heels, boots with hooks or loose slip-on shoes. Dress for the weather on the ground; it is cooler at altitude, so layers you can remove after landing work well throughout the day. ### Can friends and family watch? Spectators are usually welcome at the airfield to watch landings, subject to on-site safety rules on the day. Please check with us when you book if you are bringing a large group or need advice on the best viewing spot. Keep children supervised at all times and follow any instructions from staff around active aircraft, taxiing planes and landing areas so everyone stays safe while they watch. ### What if the weather is not suitable? We only jump when conditions are safe for students and aircraft. If weather delays or stops jumping, we will reschedule you to the next suitable date according to the policy on your booking confirmation. Do not plan tight travel immediately after your slot in case we need to wait for a weather window. Many jumpers allow the full day so rescheduled loads can still go ahead if conditions improve later. ### Is tandem skydiving safe? Tandem skydiving in the UK follows British Skydiving safety standards. Your instructor is qualified and experienced, and equipment is maintained and checked before every jump according to centre procedures. You will receive a clear briefing on what to do in the aircraft, in freefall and under canopy so you know what to expect at each stage and can relax into the experience with professional support. ### How do I get to Perranporth Airfield? We operate from Perranporth Airfield, Higher Trevellas, St Agnes, Cornwall TR5 0XS. Use sat nav to the postcode and follow local signs for the airfield when you arrive in the area. Allow extra time on busy summer weekends and school holidays. Parking and check-in details will be confirmed in your booking instructions so you know where to go on jump day. ### Who is tandem skydiving suitable for? Tandem jumps are designed for first-time skydivers who want to experience freefall with an instructor attached. You do not need prior skydiving experience or your own equipment to take part. There are medical and weight restrictions for safety. If you have a health condition, accessibility needs or questions about fitness, contact us before booking so we can advise whether a jump is suitable for you. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/Screenshot-2026-09-25-at-15.20.57.png - **Gallery image count**: 9 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
