We partner with Rewilding Britain to help protect our natural spaces for future adventures.
All centres are vetted for safety and quality. Your adventure is in good hands with adventuro.
Experience Cornwall from the sky on a tandem skydive with a qualified instructor attached to you from exit to landing. 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Arrive at Perranporth Airfield, check in with the team and complete paperwork. Your instructor runs through the safety briefing, body position for exit and landing, and answers any last questions so you feel calm before heading to the aircraft.
Board the aircraft and enjoy the climb to around 10,000ft. On the way up you will see the Cornish coastline and countryside unfold beneath you while your instructor makes final equipment checks.
Exit the aircraft with your instructor for an exhilarating freefall, then enjoy a peaceful canopy ride back to the airfield with more time to take in the views before a smooth landing.
Touch down at the airfield, receive your certificate and, if you chose a media package on the day, collect your photos and video edits sent straight to your phone.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
About the centre
St Agnes
Since 2005 we have welcomed first-time jumpers and experienced skydivers to Cornwall's only drop zone, with coastal views that make every flight unforgettable. Our small-team atmosphere keeps briefings calm and personal, so you feel looked after from check-in through to landing.
Alongside tandem experiences for bucket-list adventurers, we have trained skydivers through every stage of learning in a supportive club environment. Today we operate from Perranporth Airfield with the same family values that built the operation: passion for the sport, clear safety standards, and a warm welcome for every guest who steps through the door.
