The wind tunnel is the great attraction of Empuriabrava, unique of its kind in Spain

This is the great attraction of Empuriabrava in Spain. The principle of this wind tunnel: a large transparent tube which, thanks to advanced technology and with four hyper-powerful turbines, generates a continuous vertical flow of air, but régulable. For the person who starts a flight, it gives the feeling of a fall in the open air, as a parachute but in a secure space and always controlled by highly qualified escorts. The ancestor of this type of tunnel was first manufactured in Britain in 1871. Gustave Eiffel built and perfected his own wind tunnel which developed extensively during the Second world war. Used in a scientific environment to study aerodynamics, it is then vertical type. The Empuriabrava is horizontal, in the logic of the tunnels used to train at the parachute jump. Guaranteed sensations. If you prefer to look, a bar-restaurant lounge lets you gaze at the exploits of those who are at risk, at the front edges.
