Skydive with the best in New Zealand
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 20,000 ft – one of the highest skydives in the North Island AND in all of New Zealand! After approximately 85 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!

SOOOOO glad we did. The team were all super friendly, super professional, and my tandem master Prashant was freaking amazing. Charming, fun and able to just put you at ease.

1 January 2022I 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 🙂
