In the last few years, I’ve traveled around the world Cliff Jumping in the world’s most beautiful places, and I want to share with you my favorite experiences, so here’s my cliff jumping top ten cliff jumping is one of my all-time favorite things to do everywhere I go. I’m on the lookout for a place to jump, but before I start, I want to be very clear.
1. Mallorca
This article is a guide on the cliff jumping attempt everything at your own risk, while cliff jumping is mostly safe. It can be very dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing always check the debt before jumping and never go headfirst. Unless you know the water is super deep with that said, let’s start this article on the beautiful island of Mallorca, so Mallorca is an island located off the coast of Spain. I love this place so much that I’ve been back twice. It is a mecca for cliff jumping the whole island is surrounded by beautiful blue water and amazing places to jump.
One of my all-time favorite places to cliff jump is this place called Cala Varques, It is a Cliffjumper paradise. I remember when I first stumbled upon it. A few years ago – and I was absolutely mind – blown there are just countless places to jump into the bluest water you’ve ever seen. So the reason why I wouldn’t call out, Varques is that there’s a 60-foot arch that hangs over the water and his ideal place to jump. I remember I got there and I was like: should I just jump normal or should I jump a gainer and I decided well was like I might get hurt, but I’m going to do a gainer so anyways I chucked a gainer off this arch and landed Perfectly in the water – and it was just insane I was so stoked – I made a lot of friends out there. I also found some other cliff ledges to jump off there, and I mean I was just living in heaven. It was just such a fun place to go cliff jump, so that’s it for Mallorca.
2. Belize
Now we head over to the jungles of Belize to visit this waterfall in the middle of nowhere. So this is one of the hardest cliff jumping spots to get there it’s about a two-hour drive on bumpy dirt Roads we got to the waterfall police is so hot and humid, so it felt so nice to just swim in this water. We found this little ledge, where we just did some fun little flips off of it, and then we headed over the waterfall and I wanted to find a place to jump. So I checked the depth in the water and made sure it was deep enough, and then I found this ledge. I decided to go for it and I sent a backflip off of it.
I felt super awesome and my buddies Keith and Mackay jumped off of it. After we explored on top of the waterfall, there were also a bunch of really cool little pools, and little cool hangouts to go experience, so it was just an awesome place. I love beliefs, and that was one of the few places where could find a cliff jump.
3. Idaho
So after Belize, we head over to Idaho to do one of the craziest cliff jumps I’ve ever done. This is like a hybrid of a rope swing and a clip jump. There’s this metal bridge that goes across this river. We got to, wait for rope and we tied it to this bridge and when I was tying it, I didn’t know what knots to do. So. I just literally made up my knots tying it up, praying it would hold anyways. I got to the cliff ledge and I remember standing there. I was just so scared to do this because I wasn’t sure if the rope was going to hold me anyways after about 10 or 15 minutes of building up courage, it was time to jump off and when I jumped off it was a freefall until the tension in the Rope caught and then it just swung me underneath the bridge and then launched me off the other side. I’d end up doing about two and a half flips.
I probably will never do it again because it’s so sketchy and dangerous, but it’s a cool story to tell after hitting that crazy rope, seeing where ye so about two years ago me, my friends, we wanted to go Hawaii book, the trip out there and we were on The lookout for a cliff jumping spot and I remember our first night there he found this cliff jump into the ocean, my buddies, Keith and Davis. They hadn’t cliff jumped much before so super fun to watch them jump off the cliff. My buddy Keith Chuck did some hilarious front flips off of it. He was so funny, then my buddy Davis. He did a nice back flop off really steamed in for a bit and then my brother Matt. He threw some awesome fellow backflips off of it. So it was just a really good time, there’s also a little beach nearby. There were some local guys and they were showing us how to flip off the waves alright.
4. Hawaii
So, while we’re still in Hawaii we’ll head over to one of the craziest cliff locations, I’ve ever been it’s these cliffs that go straight off into the ocean and there’s this cave inside the cliffs where water fills up and when the waves come in it crashes and Spits out water out of the cave, so it’s crazy location. When I went there the first time, I was too scared to jump because the ocean was so rough and I just didn’t even dare to go in the water anyways. When my brother, moved there, we would go jump in there all the time. I've got a 40-50-foot cliff and anyways yeah. We would go and jump off it. My brother throws aerials, throws backflips off of it hanging out and chilling the sunsets that are always absolutely incredible, but it’s just a cool vibe. There there’s always people there just but yeah, it’s a place. I would not recommend cliff jumping unless you’re experienced.
5. Black Rock
Now we’re heading over to why I’m abated now this is another chill-friendly location. There’s this Black Rock that you can jump off of it’s about 15-20 feet high, so nothing too crazy. There are, always people jumping off when the conditions are right. The water around the area is so blue and so clear when I lived out there, I’d always go with my friends and we’d, always just go, have a good time cliff, jumping off the rock there’s, also a wonderful beach there, where you can just hang out. The good place we’d always go to cliff jump alright.
6. Lavertezzo
So after Hawaii, when I head back to Europe to visit one of the most scenic places, I’ve ever cliff jumped. It’s called Lavertezzo and Lavertezzo is located in southern Switzerland near the city of Luke Arnaud it’s famous for this bridge named Ponte de Southie, which translates to jump bridge it’s this medieval bridge that looks like something straight out of a fairy tale. The surrounding water is crystal clear, literally some of the clearest water I’ve ever seen in my life. A lot of people like to go scuba dive and free dive there it’s a great place to swim.
It’s just freaking cold. I remember seeing pictures of this place years ago I told myself I had to go there. So when I moved to Switzerland, I went there. Several times because I love it so much it’s so crazy, standing on the top of the bridge and just looking down in that crystal clear water and jumping off, I love throwing gainers off of it. I remember when I jumped off the first. I remember I made sure that everyone had my attention and then I jumped off. I felt like a kid again jumping off in the clear waters and it’s one of my all-time favorite places I’ve ever been it’s just so cool.
7. Ibiza
So after Switzerland, we head back to Spain to Ibiza while Ibiza is famous for its nightlife and party scene, I and my brother decided to go for a different reason. We had the crazy idea to go there during Halloween, because why not? And we spent the first few days exploring the island and I was honestly a little disappointed because they couldn’t find any cool flip jump spots. But on our last day, we had a few hours before the plane was about to take off and we found this beautiful cove that has some awesome clips from spots.
So my brother check the depth to make sure it was deep enough for us to jump and we found this perfect cliff. I threw some jumps off there and my brother. He threw his famous double backflip off of it and it was just so epic. We had an amazing time on, the cliff, jumping there and just enjoying the surrounding beauty. While we didn’t take any pills in Ibiza, we did do some awesome, cliff jumps.
8. Zakynthos
So after Ibiza or in a head over to Greece to visit the island of Zakynthos. Zakynthos is famous for the shipwreck beach, and that’s why I went there. But I also went there to go cliff jumping, so I wanted to find a nice little place to jump. I was in this Cove and I saw this cave in the water and I decided it would be an ideal place to cliff jump so I walked over. I checked the water and made sure it was deep enough and then I climbed to the top of the ledge on top of the cave. I was all by myself and was pretty scared to jump, but after I built up some courage, I was sent to flip off it and it was just fun.
You know the fun experience I think doing stuff alone is a great thing for you because you’re doing it for yourself and you’re not doing it to impress anybody you’re doing it, because you want to do it but anyways after I did that cliff jump. I climbed up again jumped off it, and then I spent the rest of the time just swimming and snorkeling around the cliffs of blue water.
9. Lake Tahoe
So after Greece, weren’t ahead back over to the states to Lake Tahoe. Lake Tahoe is located on the border of Nevada and California, and it’s famous for its blue waters and beautiful beaches. I mean the water. It is just so beautiful and clear. We went there not for the water, but we went there because we wanted to cliff jump.
We had a hard time finding a place to cliff jump, but we ended up finding this insane rope swing into the lake. It was tied to this tree. I honestly was too scared to do it because you have to swing out a bunch of rocks and if you fall, you’re going to get hurt, definitely don’t recommend that one super dangerous. We had some people do it. I ended up finding this little rock, where I could do some little cliff jumps and dives into the water, and it was just a cool experience.
10. Puerto Rico
Now we’ll head over to Puerto Rico, and this is one of the worst cliff-jumping experiences I’ve ever had. So I went to Puerto Rico a few years ago on a work trip and we went to this waterfall in the middle of the jungle and the guys there wanted to jump off this waterfall, so they got to the top, and first of, this place is not a place, you should cliff jump because the rock is so slippery and so wet, and these guys didn’t know what they were doing. My buddy, he literally wasn’t even on the ledge and he just decided to jump he’s in like a belly flop position and he hits the water two feet away from the rocks like he was just feet away from really getting messed up. Ironically, he only walked away with a black eye, and no other injuries, but this is an example of what you shouldn’t do when cliff jumping, don’t jump off of a crazy waterfall-it’s just stupid. On the bright side, there was a little cool waterfall “The rope swing”, there, we swam off anyways.
