Exotic Sky Adventures teamed up with the Seychelles Defense Forces for a week of beach landings, island hopping, and unforgettable skydives across the Seychelles
From April 8 through 15, Exotic Sky Adventures, in close collaboration with the Seychelles Defense Forces, held a small and very exciting event in the Seychelles.
The Event Package
The package included 10 jumps, 7 nights in a 4-star beach hotel (including breakfast), local transportation, and welcome and farewell barbeque beach dinners.
The Seychelles Air Force offered us 11 slots per load in their DO-228, exiting between 12,000 and 13,000 feet over four different islands.
Jumping The Islands
Joined by six jumpers from the Special Forces Unit, we landed on six different beaches, each with its own spectacular and stunning views, and each time topping the previous experience.
Although many will say that the jump onto Bird Island was the most spectacular one. A single, privately owned island located about 100 km away from the two main islands. As the name says it all, it is full of birds wherever you are, with spectacular views over crystal-clear turquoise waters.
Adding to the adventure was a three-hour boat trip with a Navy vessel back to the main island. And to top it all off, we were able to make a free extra jump on the last jumping day.
Wrapping Up The Week
That evening, we concluded the event with a farewell barbeque on a beautiful secluded beach, enjoying the wonderful sunset, lovely food, and local Takamaka rum.
A huge thanks to our participants for sharing these incredible experiences. We trust that memories were created which will last a lifetime. A special thanks goes out to the Seychelles Defense Forces, the Seychelles Air Force, and the Coast Guard for their ongoing support and cooperation. Without them, this would not be possible.
