Float & flip safely with this guide to iFly Singapore!
I’m proud to say I went flying without ever leaving the ground! Turns out, all I needed was a jumpsuit, a helmet, and a giant wind tunnel at iFly Singapore.
Think of it as skydiving minus the parachute panic, and with way more control over your facial expressions. I’m here to spill all about this exhilarating experience, from pre-flight briefings to the actual wind tunnel dive, so suit up and prepare to defy gravity!
What is iFly Singapore?
iFly is located on Siloso Beach Walk and is the premier indoor skydiving facility in Singapore. If you’ve ever wanted that free-falling feeling without the need to jump out of a plane, you can do it there regardless of your experience level.
Its wind tunnel is massive—taller than a five-storey building and wide enough to do cartwheels and somersaults in mid-air. With experts guiding every step, er, glide, you’ll feel like a pro the moment your feet leave the ground.

How to Get There
By MRT: Take the North-East Line (NE1) or Circle Line (CC29) to Harbourfront MRT Station. From there, exit through Exit E to VivoCity and proceed to the Sentosa Express monorail station on Level 3. Board the Sentosa Express and alight at Beach Station; iFly is a short walk from there.
By bus: Take SBS Transit Bus 123, which terminates at Beach Station Bus Terminal on Sentosa Island. From the terminal, it’s just a short walk to iFly Singapore.
If you’re already on Sentosa, you can use the island’s internal bus services, Bus A, Bus B, or Bus D, and alight at the Beach Station.
By car or taxi/drop-off: Set your destination to 43 Siloso Beach Walk. Upon entering via Sentosa Gateway, follow the signs to Beach Station. There, you’ll find an underground car park with over 600 parking lots available for visitors. Beach Station is also the designated drop-off point for iFly.
What to Expect and Do
Get blown away by the world’s largest indoor wind tunnel
– Media from iflysingapore
I’ve never been in a wind tunnel that could double as a lift shaft, but at iFly Singapore, the sheer size hit me the moment I stepped in. It’s 56.5 feet of vertical whoosh!
Imagine getting slapped by a typhoon and loving it. Okay, that’s a weird way to put it, but suffice to say, you can flip, float, and flail with style, even if your moves look more spaghetti than sky ninja (by “you,” I meant “me”).
Pro-tip: Keep your chin up and your arms relaxed. Your body will follow where your head points.
Experience a realistic skydiving simulation

The moment that wind hit 230 km/h, my cheeks flapped like a dog’s in a car window. iFly nails the free-fall simulation, as I felt I was genuinely plummeting from 12,000 feet (minus the part where the parachute might not open in time).
Everything went quiet in my head as the tunnel took over and I started hovering like some superhero with bad posture. It was intense, disorienting, and absolutely addictive.
Pro-tip: Breathe normally through your nose and don’t hold your breath so you can stay calm and stable mid-flight.
Enjoy panoramic coastal views

Mid-flight, I caught a glimpse of Siloso Beach through the giant glass wall, and for a second, I was being blasted by 230 km/h winds. Flying with a seaside view is awesome for something that doesn’t involve fully leaving the ground.
The backdrop of the South China Sea is oddly calming while your limbs are flapping like laundry in a storm. Who knew turbulence could come with a postcard view?
Pro-tip: Pick a daytime slot! Natural light makes the coastal view pop and your flight photos way nicer.
Immerse yourself in an airport-themed ambience

Walking into iFly feels like entering a mini airport, with flight boards, safety videos, and that pre-boarding buzz minus the baggage fees. The vibe tricks your brain into thinking you’re about to catch a real flight, just without the turbulence and crying toddlers.
Even the announcements and check-in counter added to the illusion, making it feel like a legit boarding experience. Except this time, you are the carry-on!
Pro-tip: Arrive early to soak in the airport vibes. They’ll call your “flight” like a real departure, and you won’t want to miss boarding.
Undergo thorough pre-flight training
– Media from itisnmn
Before you even suit up, you’ll sit through a crash course (minus the crash!) complete with on-hand signals, posture, and how not to flail like a cartoon. It’s quick, clear, and surprisingly reassuring, especially when you’re about to be airborne without a plane.
The instructors don’t mess around, either. They demo everything with the calm of someone who’s flown more than they’ve walked, which will calm your nerves after the briefing.
Pro-tip: Pay close attention to the hand signals. Once you’re in the tunnel, it’s the only language that matters.
Capture your flying moments with professional photos and videos
– Media from singaporetravelholic
In my opinion, you haven’t truly flown until you’ve seen your cheeks ripple in slow motion. Thankfully, iFly’s cameras catch every glorious second and are oddly satisfying to watch (especially when you spot that one moment you almost looked graceful).
As for the photos, they nail that “windswept superhero” look I was going for…accidentally. They’re worth buying if only to prove to my friends that I didn’t just stand in front of a fan.
Pro-tip: Strike a quick pose at the start. Those first few seconds are prime photo gold before all the flailing begins.
Have evening cocktails at SkyLoft
– Media from jeffreylinuslee
After flying, I headed upstairs to SkyLoft and swapped the wind tunnel for a wine glass. It’s the same height, but with no turbulence.
The view of the South China Sea paired surprisingly well with cocktails and sunset. When the live music kicked in just as the lights dimmed, it suddenly felt like Sentosa’s version of a rooftop escape.
Pro-tip: Head up just before sunset so the happy hour vibes with the golden hour view will hit different after flying.
Grab a burger, doughnut, or coffee at the on-site restaurants
– Media from luckincoffeesg
Nothing grounds you after floating mid-air like sinking your teeth into a Big Mac or hot fries. McDonald’s within iFly is popular among famished first-time fliers, and those needing a caffeine fix can also get a cup at Luckin Coffee.
I think of it as skydiving straight into my cheat day. Honestly, I burned enough calories while hovering, so I’ve earned that caramel sundae.
Pro-tip: Order before your flight if you’re short on time. Just stash it in the locker and eat after, so no hangry hovering happens.
Buy some memorabilia and vouchers
– Media from iflysingapore
I walked out of iFly with windblown hair and a gift voucher, because once you’ve flown, you’ll want to drag a friend into the tunnel, too. Flight vouchers make great presents, especially if you enjoy watching people scream with joy.
The digital media package is also priceless proof that I hovered, flailed, and lived to laugh at the footage. It’s the best souvenir ever with no packing required.
Pro-tip: Grab the media package online after your flight. It’s cheaper, easier to review, and you won’t impulse-buy ten flailing face shots at the counter.
