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.
