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 20,000 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 up to 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.

The entire team was friendly, professional and incredibly encouraging from start to finish. We felt safe, well-prepared and excited rather than nervous.
We're in our 60's and so glad we did it. Highly recommend !!!
The instructors are next level. The fact these guys can do back-to-back jumps all day, keep everyone safe and keep the energy high is seriously impressive. Huge shout-out to James and Jimmy, who my sister and I jumped with this time, absolute legends. This was my sister’s first ever jump for her 21st birthday, and they made it so special and fun for her. And a special mention to Mike, who I jumped with last time, also an absolute weapon.
The photos and videos they captured are incredible and will be cherished forever. I genuinely love, love, loved the whole experience. This was my second time jumping with Skydive Gold Coast and it somehow just keeps getting better.
Best views. Best people. Could not recommend them highly enough ✈️✨
I highly recommend Gold Coast Skydive for your skydiving adventure. I can't wait to do it again.
Thank you Jimmy and team 👍🙏🏻

'The Ultimate Package' this time.
The weather was perfect on the day of the jump.
My instructor, Mike, was not only professional but also incredibly funny and charismatic. A huge thanks to him and the camera flyer for making everything go so smoothly and capturing such amazing photos and videos.
Landing on the beach felt absolutely incredible.
Thank you, Gold Coast Skydive!!
I had Mike, he was amazing and cracked jokes the entire time. I felt comfortable and safe during the entire experience and Mike explained everything we were going to do before we did it. He was very encouraging and was definitely the perfect guy to throw me out of the plane 😂.
I’m sure the Gold Coast skydive team see people from all walks of life and hear their incredible and/or heartbreaking stories. For my family and I yesterday the skydive meant something so much more than the usual chase of adrenaline and you guys helped make it happen! Thank you for the amazing day and I’ll definitely be back at least once more!
Young fella was lucky enough to jump with Mike who is an absolute legend and really made his day. I was strapped to Jeff and we completed a textbook dive and perfect landing. Thanks heaps you guys can’t wait for the next jump 🙏🏻🫶🏻🤪
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!

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.
