Where to do a tandem skydive in Sassari

There is no dropzone in Sassari itself or in the province of Sassari. The nearest operational centre is Skydive Sardegna, located in Serdiana, in the southern part of the island. From Sassari, that's roughly 180 km — about 2 hours by car via the SS131. It's a real drive, but it's the only active tandem operation in Sardegna, so it's your option if you want to jump on the island.

Why Skydive Sardegna

Skydive Sardegna operates at 4,000m exit altitude — the same ceiling used by the best Italian dropzones. That gives you a full 60 seconds of freefall, not the shortened profiles you sometimes get at lower-altitude centres. The school is established, runs regular tandem slots, and is staffed by licensed instructors certified under Italian aviation authority standards. It's the reference point for skydiving in Sardegna, and the match confidence for a jump from Sassari is high — there's simply no closer alternative on the island.

How the jump works

You arrive at the dropzone, fill in paperwork, and attend a 20–30 minute briefing with your instructor. You're then harnessed to the instructor in tandem configuration and board the aircraft. At 4,000m you exit together. Freefall lasts around 60 seconds at speeds up to 200 km/h. The instructor deploys the parachute, and you spend 4–5 minutes under canopy with a view over the Sardinian landscape before a standing landing back on the dropzone. No prior experience is needed. For age, weight, and health requirements, see tandem requirements.

Alternatives to consider

If the drive to Serdiana doesn't work for you, the realistic alternatives are on the Italian mainland:

Skydive Torino (Novi Ligure, Piemonte) and Skydive Fano (Marche) are both well-established centres reachable by ferry + drive or by flight from Alghero or Olbia. Neither is closer than Serdiana when you factor in travel time from Sassari, but they offer more flexible scheduling and larger operations if you're planning a trip around the jump. Prices vary — check tandem cost guide for a current comparison table. Within Sardegna, no other dropzone currently runs regular tandem programmes.
