How to get there: Best is to book a flight to the island of Rhodos. Rhodos is a major tourist destination and has flights from and to most major cities in Europe, some of them will go through Athens. Once at Rhodos you can catch the ferry to Symi, look for Anes Boat lines, this is the ferry line transporting jumpers free of charge.
Interrested jumpers can sign up here.
ProBASE Shipwreck Boggie: Taking place on the island of Zakynthos, from August 17th to 20th 2011.
This is an exhibition event and will take place right after the event in Symi. The jump is around 200 meters also, over a paradisiacal beach with an old shipwreck. Huge landing area on a sandy beach. The event includes accommodation and transportation from Athens and back.
Logistics: To get there we will meet at Athens airport on the 17th of August and take a free shuttle bus to the ferry for Zakynthos. Slots for this event are limited to about 20 jumpers. All jumpers wanting to participate in both events will have to get a plane from Rhodos to Athens on the 17th of August, so please book soon, since tickets are still fairly cheap right now.

BASE jumping is the activity of parachuting from a fixed object as opposed to skydiving, which is parachuting from an aircraft. Fixed objects can be buildings, antennas, smoke stacks, bridges, power towers, cliffs, cable cars, dams or any other object high enough to jump from.
