Dropzone Thailand

Sea-view tandem near Pattaya — 13,500 ft over the Gulf of Thailand from a private Rayong airfield.

About This Experience

Dropzone Thailand operates from a private airfield in Rayong on the Gulf of Thailand, about an hour east of Pattaya and 2.5 hours from Bangkok. Tandems jump from 13,500 ft — the highest exit altitude in Thailand — for around sixty seconds of freefall before the canopy ride unfolds over the Gulf coastline. The aircraft is a Cessna Caravan turbine, the operator is USPA-affiliated, and the dropzone is fenced, gated, and used exclusively for skydiving rather than shared with other aviation traffic. Pricing tracks weight bands: surcharges of THB 500–3,500 apply over 90 kg, sliding upward to the operator's 120 kg ceiling. Beyond first-time tandems, Dropzone Thailand runs the full USPA Accelerated Free Fall licensing pathway and is one of two Pattaya-area dropzones (alongside Thai Sky Adventures in Chonburi) that draws regulars from across Southeast Asia. Both run year-round; Dropzone Thailand's east-coast location gives marginally better wet-season weather than Chonburi. The right jump for a tandem first-timer who wants ocean horizon rather than agricultural backdrop — Dropzone Thailand is Thailand's most-photographed jump for a reason. Couples and small groups can buy combined packages; outside-camera media is an add-on. Plan ahead either way — the dropzone runs to weather windows and slots fill 7–14 days in advance during high season.
