When you go to Fiji, you can experience skydiving. In fact, when you go there, you can experience the helicopter first, and then you can consider skydiving. This is a time to challenge your heartbeat. I wonder if you are interested.

Fiji’s skydiving is divided into four altitudes: 8000/10000/12000/14000 feet, corresponding to 15/30/45/60 seconds of free fall time respectively. The greatest enjoyment of skydiving is within this minute. For your first try, it is recommended to jump over 10,000 feet. If you are particularly afraid of heights but want to challenge yourself, you can try 8,000 feet.

Before skydiving, you will go to the skydiving company to fill out the form, watch a Chinese video, and explain the precautions for skydiving, which takes about 30 minutes. After getting ready, we went to the airport to take off. Fly high in a small plane and enjoy the scenery of Fiji while skydiving.
