Skydive Pricing

Tandem Skydive (pre-booked prices)

For those of you who want to experience the thrill of skydiving without having to complete the elaborate training requirements to jump solo, the Tandem Skydive is just for you. Please note that the prices are for pre-booked reservations only, walk-ins are welcome and will be accommodated subject to space, however a surcharge will be applied.

A Tandem skydive is a fun filled experience that you will never forget. During the skydive, you will be harnessed to one of our expert tandem instructors who will ensure your safety and enjoyment.

Your experience will start with 'one-on-one' instruction from your instructor who will take you through a detailed step by step description of your skydive as you prepare to 'gear up' for the jump.

Your ride to altitude, in one of our fast turbine aircraft, will take around 20 minutes. You will be harnessed to your tandem instructor and experience approximately 50 seconds of freefall (until the parachute is deployed) followed by a 3-4 minute canopy ride that will carry you to a soft landing.

Please note:

• You must be at least 18 years old and have photo ID to make a Tandem Skydive.
• You must bring and show your photo ID with you regardless of age.
• We can safely accommodate Tandem Skydivers who weigh 260lbs or less, however if you weigh more than 230lbs please call to discuss our additional requirements (there is an additional charge of $25.00 if you weigh more than 230lbs) to ensure your experience is safe and comfortable. 
• Please wear loose comfortable clothing and athletic footwear.
• We require a written doctors medical clearance, dated within 90 days of your jump date, if you are 65 or over.
