The spectacular views of clear turquoise water, long stretches of pristine golden beaches, and lush countryside are guaranteed to take your breath away.
Not many activities in NZ can match the pure adrenaline rush of skydiving in the Bay of Islands. Reaching speeds of up to 200 km per hour, experiencing the thrill of free fall is something you’ll never forget.
At Skydive Bay of Islands, we fly up to 18,000 ft – New Zealand’s High Altitude skydive! After approximately 75 unforgettable seconds of your life, you’ll then float under the canopy before safely landing back at the drop-zone or one of our alternative landing areas.* Even after reaching the ground, you would still be flying in the head for quite some time!
Choose Skydive Bay of Islands and go tandem skydiving with the best in New Zealand. We have amazing island views along with an equally awesome crew and instructors to make your jump a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
*Please note we have multiple landing areas available. These include:
Kerikeri Airport,
Waitangi Treaty Grounds and
Paihia beach.
Kerikeri Airport is 460ft above sea level.
So what are you waiting for? Book the highest tandem jump in NZ today!
Amazing experience! First time, didn’t think I would like it and was so scared. The crew were amazing and the free fall was a major buzz. Would do it again!... read more
