NZ's Highest Tandem skydiving from 16,500ft

Your experience begins when you arrive at our base and meet with our friendly and passionate staff. Every member of staff is a skydiver so we completely understand your excitement, because of this we make sure every experience is individual and personal. We will put on a DVD and give you a comprehensive briefing. Once we have worked out the loads we take you through to put on your jump gear and harness and then climb onboard our aircraft. You will enjoy a 20 minute scenic flight to altitude over two national parks, snow capped mountains, golden beaches and turquoise oceans, Paradise! From 16,500ft you can see Mt Taranaki in the North Island and Mt Cook in the South Island.

At altitude the door of the aircraft opens and the fun begins... you will experience 70+ seconds of freefall. The parachute will be open and you'll have 5 minutes of gently floating back down to earth.

After completing your tandem skydive you won’t be able to wipe the grin from your face.
