Jump into Paradise with Gold Coast Skydive!
Skydiving is known, for very good reason, as life’s ultimate thrill. It’s the big daddy, the adventure and rush by which all others are measured. Amazingly, the buzz of free fall is an easy and safe experience, especially during a tandem skydiving adventure.
On the ground, you will meet your highly experienced tandem instructor who will get you geared up and ready for the tandem skydive.
Your instructor will then give you a safety briefing. There are some important procedures to follow during your flight to altitude, exiting the aircraft, free fall, and landing which will make his job nice and easy.
Don’t worry if it’s your first time, Most of our customers are first-timers. Our instructors are highly qualified and jump out of planes every chance they get, some having done over 15,000 jumps. They will calm your nerves and make sure you are comfortable with everything before leaving for the airport.
Next, you will be driven to Gold Coast airport just a 5-minute drive away where you will board our Twin-engine Piper Chieftain aircraft or Cessna 182 ready for take off. On the 15-minute climb to an altitude of 12,000 feet, you will be able to take in the breath-taking scenery of the Gold Coast’s lush hinterland and golden coastline until you reach the “drop point”
Hanging over the edge of the plane, looking at the world below, hearing the engine of the plane revving along as your heart rate skyrockets will have you “feeling alive”!
When you exit the aircraft you will free fall at speeds of up to 220km/h with the ocean directly below you. It’s impossible to put the adrenaline punching 45 seconds into words but the feeling is supernatural!
Your instructor will open the parachute at approximately 5000ft. Coming off that extreme free fall high everything will slow down and you will be soaring through the air.
The parachute ride down to the beautiful Kirra Beach allows you to once again, take in the views of the entire Gold Coast from a different perspective before you land on the soft yellow sand.

Un énorme merci à mon instructeur Germain — tu étais au top !
💨💙🌞✈️
From the moment we arrived, the team was super friendly, pumped, and professional! They made everything feel safe yet exciting. I was nervous (of course!), but my instructor cracked jokes the whole time and made me forget I was about to jump out of a plane 😂.
The views over the Gold Coast? INSANE. 😍 Blue ocean, white sand, city skyline—it felt like flying over a postcard.
The freefall was pure adrenaline 🔥🔥🔥 and then the calm gliding after the parachute opened? Peaceful and magical. ☁️🪂✨
🎥 Pro tip: Get the video package—you’ll want to relive that moment again and again (and show off to your friends 😎).
Thank you to the whole crew—Skydiving Gold Coast, you guys are LEGENDS! Will 100% do it again!
🫶 #SkydivingGoldCoast #YOLO #BestDayEver
I was freaking out big time at the start (like, questioning all my life choices).
But Ash, my coach, was an absolute legend – super chill, super helpful, and didn’t let me chicken out.
Pretty sure I’ve fallen head over heels… for skydiving.
I’ll 100% be back – probably dragging some friends with me next time!
Well done everyone and thanks for such an awesome experience.
the TEAM from reception all the way to my tandem jumps was a great experience.
anyone considering just doit!!
Mike’s energy and passion for skydiving were contagious, and his professionalism stood out every step of the way. The freefall was exhilarating, and his guidance ensured that I could enjoy every second without a worry.
Thank you, Mike, for making this experience unforgettable! I’d highly recommend him to anyone considering skydiving—you’ll be in the best hands!
As soon as we hit the ground we were ready to go again! Thank you!
From the moment I arrived I was at ease, I can't thank my tandem instructor Luke enough, his experience shows in his relaxed but highly professional manner, the jump itself wow really no words needed honestly the most exhilarating experience of my life!
I can't recommend gold coast skydiving enough!
We did the 6:30am jump. It was the first jump of the day. The whole experience was perfect. The reception staff were polite and welcoming. The instructors were precise and humorous. The safety briefing was quicker than expected, but it was all that was necessary. You were guided through the key take always and in the van before you knew it. We had driven to the airport, taken off in the plane, jumped and landed on the beach by 7:25am. There were no drawn out processes.
As for the jump itself - breathtaking, beautiful. You take off in a little plane with no door which is an experience in itself. I was never fussed on sky diving, but the best way I can explain this experience is that immediately after I felt this strange feeling that if I hadn’t of experienced this in my life I would have been bitterly disappointed and full of regret. It was that good, from start to finish.
Cannot recommend highly enough!!
Can’t fault anything about this company. Everyone was friendly and the customer service was awesome.
Highly recommended.
Trust me I highly recommend these people if you ever want to try skydiving! They will look after you and will make you feel absolutely comfortable! You will feel absolutely amazing afterwards and you will not regret it! ????????
Over the moon with the experience, would recommend the skydive experience to anyone. Rick had a great ability to put me at ease and I would definitely jump again. I purchased the video package and am grateful I did so. Great day, great team, great experience. Can’t speak highly enough of my experience.

Bad weather on the day of my jump, I asked to postpone it until the weather forecast predicted sunny skies... No problem...
On the day, great reception, no rush, everything very clearly explained, you feel you're in very good hands...
The plane is a bit rickety ???????? but it got us to our desired altitude...
And then the jump... Phenomenal... You have to try it... The rush when you jump is indescribable... The view is better than you imagine ????
I jumped with Mike, nicest guy you'll ever meet...
Great stuff ????
Cannot recommend these guys enough ????
literally one hour before our trip they decided to cancel it
its a complete scam and I highly recommend you not to go here
From an organisation point of view the center is highly organised from booking to leaving.
100% recomend GC skydive especially for the friendly efficient service, the views, the staff the video and the price.
Thank you so much team for making my experience amazing
The experience itself was just absolutely amazing. Hard to explain but it was so unique. If you are on the fence about doing it or aren't sure who to do it through, you've found the right place with these guys. Flawless. Thanks so much again to gold coast skydive for our experience
Special thanks to Sam R who looked after my son and gave him an incredible experience he will never forget, and of course bragging right to his online buddies. It also made me feel 20 years old again as I too jumped out of my comfort zone.
Many thanks to the ice cool professionalism of James T. He gave me total confidence from start to finish which kept me from freaking out. Also a special mention to our Tyneside camera man who kept us laughing though out and did a great job! Thanks also to Russell for his work, especially for looking after our anxious family members on the ground.
Really recommend to get the video/ photo package if available. It was superbly done and delivered the next morning which was amazing. Now we can forever relive the experience with these incredible images. Huge thank you to all the team. It was worth every cent!
Thank you to all the team, from France: Merci
