Skydiving over the Bay of Islands with ‘Skydive Bay of Islands’ is arguably the most scenic and picturesque skydive you can do in New Zealand, letting you experience the 144 islands of the Bay of Islands from the air. If the weather permits, you may even catch a glimpse of the Cavalli Islands to the north of us too!
The great thing about tandem skydiving is there isn’t a thing to worry about, you are in the capable hands of your tandem master. Skydive Bay of Islands is certified to the highest possible standard by New Zealand’s Civil Aviation Authority, ensuring that your skydive will not only be the most exhilarating thing you do this year, but also one of the safest and most highly regulated. Our tandem masters have over twenty thousand jumps and twenty years experience between them and are trained to the highest level, which will reassure any of you who may be a little nervous!
One of the best things about Tandem Skydiving, apart from the fact that you’re harnessed to someone who has done this literally thousands of times before and has lived to tell the tale, is that you can experience freefall on your very first jump. That’s the most exciting part!
Before you book your tandem jump you’ll need to decide what level of crazy suits you best. So check out the descriptions below, then make your booking.
