This
has got to be one of the most spectacular dropzones
in the world! From the air, the views are breathtaking.
Freefalling from 9000ft, at 200km/hr for roughly 30
seconds and then gliding down for about 3 minutes
once your chute has opened. If you’d like a
video of your “once in a lifetime experience”,
let us know before heading out to the dropzone. You
can also jump from 11 000ft on request and this is
an additional cost. Transport can be arranged.
We can also assist licensed skydivers as well as helping
you arrange your Static Line or AFF Course! |

Bungy
Jumping
Gouritz
At Gouritz Bridge (about 40km from Mossel Bay) you
can do the 65m Bungy or if you want to jump with a
friend – the Gouritz Bridge Swing can be done
tandem. There is the option of a video too. The Gouritz
Bridge Swing is a jump where you jump from one bridge
while being suspended by the other, so you have a
small freefall period before swinging outward. |
Bloukrans
At 216m - Bloukrans Bungy boasts the title of the World’s
Highest Bungy. This jump also has the option of a video.
Bloukrans is situated on the N2, in the beautiful Tsitsikamma
– this jump is about 7hours from Cape Town. |

Microlighting
See the breathtaking panoramic vistas that
Cape Town has to offer by microlight. No walls to separate
you from the experience, no windows to peep out of,
just a butterfly like delta wing and the hum of the
engine. Enjoy a breathtaking flight from Wintervogel
Farm, to the Wild West coast. Witness varying landscapes
of farmlands, winelands and coastal dunes and watch
whales and dolphins playing in the surf. Bring your
own picnic and be left to romance the day away on a
secluded beach...
The best time
to fly is early morning, 6:30am onwards as the wind
picks up from about 10am. |

Helicopter
Rides
The
helicopter flights depart from the Waterfront. You’ll
have a choice between our 20min, 30min and 60min scenic
flights. The 30min flight follows the Atlantic seaboard
along the majestic Twelve Apostles – through
Constantia and then back flying over Table Mountain
and the city bowl. The 60min flight follows a similar
route to the 30min flight, but instead of heading
back to Cape Town after Noordhoek – you carry
on along the entire peninsula – returning via
Simon’s Town, Fish Hoek, Muizenberg and then
inland over the lush Constantia Valley and back to
the heli-pad at the Waterfront. |
