Skydive Between Tampa and Orlando at 14,000 ft





Description
A 14,000-Foot Skydive Over Florida
A tandem skydive in Orlando is an intense experience that combines adrenaline and spectacular scenery—both during the airplane climb and the freefall. The activity takes place at a dropzone certified by the United States Parachute Association, ensuring safety and professionalism. Depending on your preference, you can jump from Orlando, Tampa, or Lake Wales, three sites known for their ideal weather conditions and accessibility.
60 Seconds of Freefall at 200 km/h (120 mph)
Skydiving in Florida begins with a short ground briefing, during which your instructor explains the correct body position and the stages of the jump. Then you put on your harness and board a high-performance aircraft that gradually climbs to 14,000 feet (about 4,200 meters). Once at altitude, your instructor securely attaches you to them and, at their signal, it’s time to jump. For nearly one minute, you experience the incomparable feeling of freefall at over 120 mph before the parachute opens at around 5,000 feet (1,600 meters).
A Peaceful Descent and Incredible Views of Florida
Once the canopy opens, the descent becomes calm and quiet. You glide over Florida’s countryside, enjoying a clear view of the lakes and forests surrounding the region. From Lake Wales, you can see the coast and the vast stretches of water that define central Florida. In Tampa, the descent offers views of the Gulf of Mexico, while in Orlando, you can spot the theme parks and the city skyline. Each site provides a unique perspective, but the feelings remain the same — total freedom and awe.
A Safe and Accessible Activity for Everyone
The tandem skydive in Orlando is supervised by experienced instructors with thousands of jumps to their credit. All equipment is inspected before every flight, and the gear used meets U.S. standards. This activity requires no prior experience — you only need to be over 18 and in good physical condition. Whether for a personal challenge, a gift, or a shared experience, skydiving in Florida is an adventure you’ll never forget.
