However, with so many activities to choose from, you may be wondering, “Which one should I try? and “Which one should I try? So this time, we tried skydiving, which is fun because of its beautiful scenery. Here is the whole story.
Cairns, Australia, is a resort destination with a tropical rainforest, the Great Barrier Reef, two World Heritage Sites, year-round summer, swimming and cute animals, and more than 2,500 activities to enjoy both the ocean and mountains.
Early morning diving for a meaningful day. Free dive from 4000m above the ground!
We used THE SKYDIVE AUSTRALIA, the only one offering skydiving within Cairns. Prices start from AUD 359 per person.
The price includes transportation, insurance, transportation to 15,000 feet, various equipment rental, and of course, a support instructor. If you want photos or video, you will have to pay extra.
Greet your instructor who will be your pair. You will be taught the proper position for getting out of the Provera. Hold the harness firmly with your arms crossed, chin up, and head on the instructor’s shoulder. By the way, put your feet under the plane. Your body is already in a state of floating, right?
When you get off the plane, you are bananas in the air! The pose is important, he said. Extend your legs back and your head curved back as well. He explained that once you get used to it, you can spread your hands out and feel like a bird.
After a 15-20 minute ride in the shuttle, you will be transferred to the airfield. Upon arrival, you will be immediately transferred to a Provera aircraft, which will take you to an altitude of 15,000 feet. The cabin is quite cold in the morning and at high altitude. Instructors wear short sleeves, but it is better to wear long sleeves if possible for participants who are not used to it.
Since I was last in line, I watched the other participants as they flew out of the aircraft, and I got the impression that when they were ready, they quickly and easily walked out of the aircraft. When I noticed them, I thought, “What? They’re not there! I was always saying to myself, “There he is! Of course, I myself stepped out of the plane, and soon I was free-falling at a speed of 200 km/h.
Sam, who was in charge of the flight, said he flies about five to six times a day. After opening his parachute, he mischievously shook it from side to side for about 5-6 minutes to entertain us.
Incidentally, depending on the person, the moment you get on the car for the return trip, you may feel relieved and get drunk all at once. It is ideal to take anti-sickness medicine as soon as possible.
It is also a good idea to choose a hotel nearby in case you need to take a quick rest! If you are planning to dive within 12 hours, it is best to schedule your skydiving trip in the first half of your trip, as you will not be able to fly if you are diving within 12 hours!
