It is in the heart of the Landes region, halfway between Bordeaux and Biarritz, that the team of Skydive Mimizan invites you to experience one of the most intense thrills: freefall. Indeed, what could be more extreme than jumping from a plane in flight at an altitude of 4,000 metres and letting yourself fall, at around 200 km/h, for nearly 50 seconds? An adrenaline rush is guaranteed when skydiving over the Landes, and in complete safety thanks to the guidance of a state-certified instructor. The instructor will be attached to you via a harness specially designed for the activity, ensuring you can enjoy your experience with peace of mind, even though you are likely to feel the stress rising as the plane approaches the jump altitude. But that is exactly why you are here, isn’t it?
This skydive in Mimizan will not only give you the adrenaline rush you are looking for, but also a breathtaking view of the beautiful Landes region. Between the pine forests, the golden sandy beaches and the Atlantic Ocean stretching to the horizon, you are sure to be treated to a spectacular view once your freefall is over, during the roughly 5-minute glide that takes place before landing. This will be the perfect moment to chat with your instructor, who will remain attached to you throughout, about your jump and how you felt, as well as to calmly recover from the excitement before touching down.
This skydiving experience in Mimizan is the ultimate adventure for thrill-seekers in the Landes region. So if you are looking for an adrenaline rush near Bordeaux and the Basque Country, be sure to book your skydive from Mimizan Aerodrome!
