Tandem in the winter sun

Why not skydive in tandem in the middle of winter, in the sun?

Head for Morocco, at the foot of the Atlas: from 5 December 2026 to 4 April 2027, PACMA jumps every day from 8:30 am to 6 pm. You climb to 4,000 m in a Pilatus PC-6, harnessed to a qualified instructor, for around 50 seconds of freefall facing peaks that are often snow-capped. No experience needed: just the urge to live a unique moment.

Why PACMA

A spectacular sky, with professionals at your side

Pilatus PC-6 Porter
  1. 01

    An FFP-approved club

    Approved by the French Parachuting Federation (FFP), with qualified instructors, well-maintained equipment and federation rules, in partnership with Vertical T'Air (Arcachon): you jump with complete confidence.

  2. 02

    The Pilatus PC-6 Porter

    Skydiving's legendary aircraft: short take-off, a fast climb to 4,000 metres and a wide exit door for a grand departure.

  3. 03

    Breathtaking scenery

    The often snow-capped peaks of the Atlas on one side, the Tadla plain and Beni Mellal on the other. A view you'll be talking about for years.

  4. 04

    Sunshine while Europe hibernates

    From December to early April, while most European dropzones take a break, you jump in the sunshine at the foot of the mountains.

Learn

Ready to go further than a tandem?

Learn to skydive with AFF (PAC, the French equivalent): from your very first jump, you fall under your own parachute, held by two instructors. Start with an AFF first jump (€500) or dive straight into the 7-jump AFF course (€1,300), following the French Parachuting Federation (FFP) syllabus.

  1. 01

    AFF first jump

    Your first freefall under your own parachute, with two instructors beside you: the most exciting way to find out whether skydiving is for you.

    From €500

    Discover the AFF first jump
  2. 02

    AFF course, 7 jumps

    The supervised jumps of the federation's progression: body position, stability, deployment, then autonomy that grows with every jump, under your instructors' eyes.

    From €1,300

    See the AFF course
  3. 03

    A licence

    Under FFP rules, the A licence requires at least 12 jumps, including 5 solo. Your progression logbook follows the federation syllabus, so you can continue the adventure at the FFP club of your choice.

An FFP-approved medical certificate less than three months old is required for AFF and the course.

Frequently asked questions

Everything people ask us before their first jump

All questions
How much is a tandem skydive at PACMA?

A tandem skydive costs €250 for non-residents and 2,500 MAD for Morocco residents, all inclusive: briefing, Pilatus flight and full equipment. Want to keep the memory? Add video and photos (€100 or 1,000 MAD). Online payment is secure and charged in dirhams; the full price list is on the Prices page.

Is a tandem safe for a first skydive?

Yes: the tandem is designed precisely for a first skydive, and it is supervised from start to finish: a club approved by the French Parachuting Federation, qualified instructors, a reserve parachute and an automatic activation device on every rig. The chief instructor only lets you jump in good weather; otherwise, your jump is rebooked free of charge.

Where does the skydive take place?

At Beni Mellal Airport, at the foot of the Middle Atlas, above the Tadla plain: a magnificent setting. It's a 2-hour drive from Casablanca and 2.5 hours from Marrakech, perfect for a day of adventure or a weekend in the sun.

Do you need experience for a tandem skydive?

None at all! Your instructor takes care of everything: the exit, the freefall, the parachute deployment and the landing. After a short briefing on body position, all you have to do is enjoy it: around 50 seconds of freefall and 5 to 7 minutes of flight under canopy.

When in the year can you jump?

All winter long, from 5 December 2026 to 4 April 2027, every day from 8:30 am to 6 pm. Pick your date online with complete peace of mind: if wind or cloud turns up, your skydive is rebooked free of charge for another date in the season.

Is there a minimum age or a weight limit?

Tandem skydiving is open from age 15, with parental consent for minors, up to 90 kg, dressed. A medical certificate confirming you are fit to skydive is required; no certificate? The club doctor can examine you on site, the same day.

Can you give a skydive as a gift?

Yes, and it's an unforgettable present! Gift vouchers, for a specific jump or any amount, are bought online and can be printed instantly. They are valid for the season: a voucher bought today can be used until 4 April 2027, the date printed on the voucher.
