Her body was retrieved from the water and taken to the marina before the emergency services confirmed her death.
The student was holidaying in Budva, southwest of Podgorica, when she fell to her death last week.
Authorities are investigating what caused her to frantically unbuckle her belt, remove her legs from the straps, and fall from the seat.
It is believed she suffered a panic attack while in the air.
An attempt to take her own life has not been ruled out, but loved ones say they do not believe she would do that.
The victim had been posting cheerful photos of her holiday in the days leading up to the fall.
Even the owner of the operating tour company Budva MK said she appeared happy before the activity.
He said: “She was cheerful and in a good mood before the flight.
“She showed no fear of heights or flying.
“Before we set off, she waved to her friends on the beach and they waved back.
“Everything seemed fine.
“We don’t know why she unbuckled her seat belt and harness and jumped out.
“I guess she didn’t do it consciously, but in a moment of uncontrollable fear.”
The tour company suspects she got scared because she thought something was wrong with the equipment, adding: “Maybe she wasn’t aware of the height she was flying at.”
The victim was reportedly seen pulling the cables and shouting “help me” in the moments leading up to the fall.
Her friends in her hometown of Novi Sad, near Belgrade, Serbia, paid tribute to the teen victim.
One lifelong pal said: “If I could choose who to spend my childhood with, I would choose you again.”
Another friend posted: “She was full of life, always smiling.
“She never cared about what others thought of her.”
The police investigation is ongoing.
