Where we meet, the best months to go, and how a booking with Jah Shaka works.

When is the best time for Skydiving?
This one runs all year. March to May and September to November are the most comfortable months to be out in the Algarve, because July and August get hot away from the coast. In high summer, take the earliest start you can.
How booking works
Skydiving starts at €179 per person. Pick your date, then pay securely with Stripe at checkout. We then confirm your place with the operator. Free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
Once we have the booking confirmed with the operator, we email you everything you need for the day. Meeting points move now and then, so the email is always the version to trust.
Booked through the shop, run by locals
We are a booking hub, not the operator: every activity is run by a certified local partner, and we tell you who you are meeting and where before you go. One message reaches a real person here for the whole trip, whether that is an activity, a surf lesson or a board rental for the days in between.
Booking with us also unlocks 10% off products in the shop that week. Retail products only: it excludes selected technical products, and does not apply to lessons, rentals or other activities.
