First Time Tandem Skydive Requirements Weight Limit Bali

So, you’re thinking about skydiving in Bali for the first time? Awesome! I just did my first tandem skydive, and let me tell you, it’s an experience. The main thing to know upfront is that tandem skydiving here operates out of Buleleng, up in North Bali. If you’re staying in Seminyak or Canggu, be prepared for a drive – it’s about 2.5 to 3 hours. From Ubud, it’s a bit closer, around 1.5 hours. Factor that into your day!

What to Know Before You Go

Let’s talk logistics. The complete tandem skydive package starts at USD 1,200. This covers everything: your certified instructor, a comprehensive safety briefing (which is super important), and a professional photo and video package of your jump. Believe me, you’ll want those memories. timing, the dry season, April through October, is your best bet. You’ll get the clearest visibility and calmest winds, which really makes a difference for those stunning views. I went in August and the conditions were perfect. For actual freefall, you’re looking at about 60 seconds, followed by a glorious 4 to 5 minute parachute descent where you can really soak everything in. I highly recommend booking a morning jump; the weather conditions are generally better, and the views of the northern coastline are absolutely pristine.

Requirements and Booking

A crucial factor for your first time tandem skydive is the weight limit. For safety reasons, the maximum weight is 100 kg (220 lbs). They also consider height and overall body composition if you’re close to that limit, so be honest with yourself. Dress-wise, closed-toe shoes are a must – no sandals! Also, avoid loose clothing and any jewelry during the jump. You don’t want anything flying off at 10,000 feet. Booking is straightforward; you can do it through their website or via WhatsApp at +62 811 3941 4563. I’d advise booking early, especially if you’re planning to go during peak season, as spots fill up quickly. It’s a truly unforgettable experience, and knowing these details beforehand will make your first tandem skydive in Bali smooth and incredible.

For arrangements, a specialist offering Komodo boat charter can coordinate this end to end.
