Big thank you to Prashant for being an awesome guide and also to the team at Sky Dive Bay Of Islands,definitely an experience to be remembered.
Will see you’s again for sure and will definitely go higher next time.

  Skydive Bay of Islands were fantastic from start to finish. I contacted them several months ago telling them we would be passing through on a cruise ship. They picked us... read more up, dropped us off & took great care of us in between. My Instructor, Prashant Kapoor was FANTASTIC. Made me feel so at ease doing "the most frightening thing" I've ever done. I LOVED it! Thanks guys for an INCREDIBLE experience.

  Amazing blue sky experience from 20,000 feet over the beautiful Bay of Islands. Thanks to my great instructor Prashant and all the Skydive Bay of Islands team for a fantastic afternoon.

  Awesome experience Instructor (Prashanti) made the whole experience fun and memorable. Definitely will be back to go higher.

  I did a skydive here on 02nd January 2022. The skydive itself was exhilarating. A lifelong dream and the first one I'd ever done. Everything went well until we came... read more in to land. We seemed to be coming in faster than we should but as a complete novice, I had no point of reference.

We hit the ground very hard, landing directly on my backside. The pain was excruciating. The instructor, Maurice, said he tried to take the impact on his feet, but couldn't (I am significantly taller and heavier than him (I'm a 30's male - 185cm, 95kg)

I could barely stand up, but I was ushered away and told that this sort of thing happens now and again. Just put a bit of deep heat on it and I'll be fine in a couple of days!

I was in agony, so I went to a physio a couple of days later and got referred for an x-ray. I had a compression fracture (T11) in my spine and a broken tailbone. It heavily impacted my quality of life. I've gone through physiotherapy and have improved significantly, but I'm still in intermittent discomfort nearly 10 months later.

There was no record made of the accident and it was all brushed off. I returned to the site the next day to understand what went wrong. Maurice wasn't available so I spoke to one of his colleagues. I was told it was probably turbulence. It's unlucky and rare, but it happens. It didn't appear to be taken seriously.

I realise there are inherent risks with jumping out of an aeroplane, but I'm not happy with how it was dealt with.

  The whole team makes you feel that you are capable. I did a lot of extreme sports in my life but I can say with certainty that Prashant is... read more the best instructor. Professional, friend, makes you feel safe and capable from your first contact. It was definitely the best money spent and Prashant made my birthday unforgettable forever. Thanks team. Thanks "Angel Pranshat".

  Exhilarating time and sensory overload made this a memorable first skydiving experience. Prashant was professional and chill throughout. I had a great time =)

  After a few failed attempts to get to Taupo (lockdowns) to skydive with friends, and after the death of one of my groups mother, we decided while we were all... read more together in Whangarei we’d jump with Skydive Bay of Islands instead. 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.
