Vendée Evasion Parachutisme Experience the thrill of skydiving in Les Sables-d'Olonne

Skydive over the Atlantic Coast in Les Sables d'Olonne

If you're going to jump out of a plane, you might as well do it somewhere unforgettable.

From April to September, Vendée Evasion Parachutisme offers tandem skydives above the Atlantic Ocean, with sweeping views of the Vendée coastline.
Calm, experienced instructors. A stunning location. And a moment you'll be talking about for years.

A skydiving experience that stands apart

Based in Les Sables d'Olonne, Vendée Evasion Parachutisme is recognised as one of the most established skydiving centres on the French Atlantic coast.
With thousands of jumps completed, the team knows exactly how to make your first skydive both thrilling and reassuring.

No hype. Just a properly run operation.

Choose your jump: 4,000 m or 7,700 m HALO

• 4,000 m tandem skydive
  Perfect for a first jump: around 50 seconds of freefall at 200 km/h, followed by a smooth canopy flight over sea and coastline.

• 7,700 m HALO skydive — the highest in France and Europe
  A serious experience. Two full minutes of freefall at 280 km/h, using oxygen.
  Reserved for those who have already jumped from 4,000 m and hold a medical certificate.

A rare finale: landing on the beach

One of Vendée Evasion's signatures is the setting.
From the air, you'll take in Les Sables d'Olonne bay, salt marshes, Île de Ré, Île d'Oléron and even the famous Vendée Globe channel.

And in 2025, an unforgettable touch: a beach landing at Le Veillon.
Not many skydives end with sand under your feet.

Take it home with you

Your jump can be recorded with professional video and photos, available for a full year — ideal for reliving the moment or proving, once and for all, that you actually did it.

Gift vouchers are available, as well as group jumps (up to 7 tandems per flight).

One jump is usually enough to understand why people come back.
Sometimes more than once.
