Tandem skydive Pattaya: what the seven listings sell
Every tandem skydive Pattaya listing on this page sells the same thing in different words: two people in one harness, one parachute, and a door that opens above the Gulf of Thailand. What the seven descriptions do not share is detail. Four of them name the height, one counts the freefall in seconds, one counts the canopy ride in minutes, and one never uses the word tandem at all. Fares run from $304 to $387. This page puts the seven descriptions side by side so you can see which one is actually telling you what you are buying.
Quick answer
The short answer. Tandem is the whole market here — six of the seven listings say so in the title or the description, and the seventh describes the same jump without the word. The height named most often is 13,000 feet, which the cheapest listing writes as 4 km. One description counts 60 seconds of freefall and a 5-minute canopy ride. The tandem skydive Pattaya listings start at $304.

Where it happens
Where a tandem skydive Pattaya jump actually starts
Two listings say Bangkok. The jump is over Pattaya on all seven.
The first thing to get straight is the map. The domain says Bangkok and two of the seven listings are filed under Bangkok, but nothing takes off from the city. Four listings are filed under Pattaya and one under Rayong Province, and every description that names the ground below names the same stretch of it: the Gulf of Thailand, its coastline, its beaches. The aircraft climbs over the coast south-east of Bangkok, and Pattaya is the town you will be dropped back into.
One listing shows how easily this is misread. «Pattaya: Dropzone Tandem Skydive Experience with Ocean Views» carries a Bangkok address on the booking platform, and then its own description says hotel transfers from Pattaya. Where the two disagree, the description is the one written by the people running the jump.
So the practical question is not which city is in the title, it is where your morning starts. «Pattaya-Bangkok Tandem Skydive with Ocean Views» names pick-up and drop-off in Pattaya. «Pattaya: Dropzone Tandem Skydive with Return Transfer» puts the return transfer in its name. One more listing marks its transfers as optional in the title, which means you should read the booking options before you assume a car is coming. If you are sleeping in Bangkok, the road south is part of the day either way.
The jump itself
What the descriptions say happens, step by step
The height. Four descriptions name it and they agree: 13,000 feet. One writes it as 13000 feet with 4000 metres in brackets, one as «up to 13,000 feet», one as «13000Ft above sea level». The cheapest listing of the seven says 4 km instead, which is the same height rounded differently. Two descriptions — «Pattaya: Dropzone Tandem Skydive Experience with Ocean Views» and the one that leaves the word tandem out — give no height at all.
The freefall. Only one description puts a number on it: 60 seconds, in «Pattaya-Bangkok Tandem Skydive with Ocean Views». Two others describe the speed rather than the clock. «Pattaya: Dropzone Tandem Skydive Experience with Ocean Views» says free-falling at over 120 miles per hour with 360° ocean panoramas; the listing that avoids the word tandem says up to 220 kilometres per hour. Those two figures are not the same number in different units, so read them as each operator’s own way of describing the same part of the jump rather than as a measurement you can compare.
The canopy. One description again: 5 minutes under the parachute, in the same Pattaya listing that counts the freefall. «Pattaya: Skydiving with an Ocean View» puts it plainly — a tandem jump from 13,000 feet, landing with the help of a parachute. That is the whole shape of it: the climb, the exit, about a minute of falling, a few minutes of quiet, the beach getting closer.
Who you are attached to. Tandem means you are not flying the parachute; somebody behind you is. Only one of the seven says anything about the people doing that job: «Pattaya: Dropzone Tandem Skydive Experience with Ocean Views» describes USPA-approved instructors. The other six do not mention it, and this page does not claim it on their behalf.

Seven listings, their current fares and the length each one gives. Three leave the length field empty, so the cost-per-hour column has nothing to divide and shows a dash.

Seven listings
What makes each listing different from the next
The differences are in the descriptions, not in the marketing. Here is what each tandem skydive Pattaya listing actually tells you.
- «Thailand: Tandem Skydive Over Bangkok & Pattaya» — $304, 4 hours
The cheapest of the seven and the one with the reviews: 178 of the 210 on this page, rated 4.7. Its description is the one that writes the height as 4 km above the Gulf of Thailand, and one of only two listings that offer to build a video with tributes for friends and family.
- «Pattaya-Bangkok Tandem Skydive with Ocean Views» — $330, 3.5 to 4 hours
The most detailed description of the seven, and the only one that counts the jump: 13000 feet, 60 seconds of freefall, a 5-minute parachute ride. It also names pick-up and drop-off in Pattaya, a personalised skydive certificate and souvenirs. 16 reviews at 5.0 — the second-largest review count here.
- «Pattaya: Dropzone Tandem Skydive Experience with Ocean Views» — $342, length not given
The only description that mentions USPA-approved instructors, and the only one that describes the view as a 360° ocean panorama at over 120 miles per hour. It also names hotel transfers from Pattaya, in spite of the Bangkok address on the listing. Five reviews at 4.9.
- «Pattaya: Dropzone Tandem Skydive with Return Transfer» — $357, 3 hours
The same dropzone with the return transfer written into the title, and the shortest description: a fall from up to 13,000 feet with views of the Gulf of Thailand and the beaches. Three hours door to door makes it the quickest of the listings that do give a length, apart from the 90-minute one. Five reviews at 5.0.
- The listing filed under Pattaya with optional transfers — $320, length not given
The odd one out: its description never uses the word tandem, gives no height, and offers one number only — a fall at up to 220 kilometres per hour. Transfers are marked optional in the title rather than described. Two reviews.
- «Pattaya: Skydiving with an Ocean View» — $387, 1.5 hours
The highest fare and the shortest slot. The title sounds like a jump of your own; the description says the opposite in the first line — a tandem jump from 13000Ft above sea level, landing with the help of a parachute. At 90 minutes it is the one to read carefully if you are travelling in from outside Pattaya. Two reviews.
- «Thailand: Tandem Skydive Over Bangkok & Pattaya Adventures» — $357, 3 hours
Almost the same title as the cheapest listing on the page, and a near-identical description — freefall from 13,000 feet over the Gulf of Thailand, video with tributes. The fare is $357 against $304, and it carries two reviews against 178. Worth knowing before you click the first result that matches the name you remembered.
Want the tandem skydive Pattaya fares pulled apart rather than listed — what each one covers, and where the gap between $304 and $387 goes?
What a jump costs here→What you take home
What the descriptions say comes with the jump
Three of the tandem skydive Pattaya listings say something about what you leave with, and the rest say nothing, which is worth reading as nothing rather than as an omission.
A certificate and souvenirs. «Pattaya-Bangkok Tandem Skydive with Ocean Views» is the only description that names a personalised skydive certificate and souvenirs as part of what you book.
Video. Two descriptions — the cheapest listing and the near-identically named one — talk about creating a video with tributes for friends and family. Neither says whether the camera is in the fare or added at the dropzone, so treat it as something to confirm in the booking options rather than something already paid for.
The ride. Transfers are the one extra that several listings do put in writing: pick-up and drop-off in Pattaya on one, hotel transfers from Pattaya on another, a return transfer in the title of a third, optional transfers in the title of a fourth. The other three say nothing about getting you there.
Everything else — the harness, the parachute, the climb — is simply the jump, and no description on this page itemises it.

Tandem skydive Pattaya, answered
Is skydiving in Pattaya always a tandem jump?
Every listing on this page is a tandem jump: six say so in the title or the description, and the seventh describes the same jump without using the word. None of the seven describes a jump you make on your own.
How high is the jump?
Four descriptions say 13,000 feet. The cheapest listing writes the same height as 4 km above the Gulf of Thailand. Two listings give no height at all, so if the number matters to you, book one of the five that states it.
How long is the freefall, and how long under the parachute?
One description counts both: 60 seconds of freefall and a 5-minute parachute ride. The others describe speed instead — over 120 miles per hour on one listing, up to 220 kilometres per hour on another — or give no figure.
How much does a tandem skydive Pattaya jump cost?
From $304 on the cheapest of the seven, which is also the one with 178 of the 210 reviews. The highest fare here is $387. The full breakdown is on the page about what a jump costs.
Is the dropzone in Bangkok or in Pattaya?
In Pattaya. Two listings are filed under Bangkok and one under Rayong Province, but every description that names the ground below names the Gulf of Thailand coast. One Bangkok-filed listing says in its own description that transfers come from Pattaya.
How long does the whole trip take?
The lengths given run from 1.5 hours to 4 hours, and three of the seven listings leave the field empty. The jump is a small part of that: the rest is the drive, the dropzone and the climb to height.
Do the listings include a ride from the hotel?
Four of the seven tandem skydive Pattaya listings put transport in writing: pick-up and drop-off in Pattaya, hotel transfers from Pattaya, a return transfer named in the title, and one that marks transfers as optional. The other three say nothing about it, so check the booking options.
