Experience the thrill
Blue skies, blue waters, golden sands, and sunshine are what we’re all about. Oh, and we LOVE skydiving! The thrill, the buzz, and the pure adrenaline of skydiving are something everyone should experience. Skydiving in the Bay of Islands is an awesome way to experience all of that and more! Choose from our four skydive heights – 9,000ft, 12,000ft, 16,000ft, and of course, NZ’s high altitude skydive at 18,000ft! Soak up the scenery of all 144 islands that make up the Bay of Islands, the view is guaranteed to take your breath away! The exhilaration of free fall will have you buzzing long after your feet touch the ground! Skydiving in the Bay of Islands is truly an incredible experience.

I was booked in for the 9000ft and upgraded for only $30 to the 12000ft. Was my first jump and I was nervous! I absolutely loved the experience! Every member... read more of staff was happy, smiling and accomodating throughout. I believe they could read that I was scared and they didn’t push me or try to be overbearingly excited, they were the perfect amount of funny, supportive and excited. Would definitely recommend the 12000ft jump minimum to be able to have the best experience of the free fall. And the management went out of their way by dropping me off down the road after my jump. I would recommend this experience any day of the week and really hope that the business bounces back from covid once the borders reopen. Best of luck!! Also would recommend getting the photo package or the video one for the laughs afterwards 🙂
