Who ever thought that $285 could buy a 14,000-foot Wollongong skydiving experience? Amazing as it is, it’s true – the adventure of a lifetime costs less than your day’s salary.

Skydiving in Wollongong typically involves free falls of over 200 kilometres per hour, sensational aerial views of Wollongong beach, and a feeling of absolute freedom.

You’ll be hurtling through 9000 feet of sky in about 60 seconds, all the while feeling as if you’re floating on a cushion of air. Then you’ll deploy your chute and relax, realising that Wollongong beach is more beautiful than you ever imagined it could be – 4500 feet above the ground.

You’ll bask in that splendour and the serenity of your canopy ride for several minutes, and before you know it, you’ll be gently landing on the beach, safe as can be.

The best part? What happens in Wollongong doesn’t stay in Wollongong. You’ll head home with a smile on your face and a memory that will last a lifetime.

Known for its beaches and picturesque landscape, Byron Bay attracts skydivers from all over Australia. And when you go for a Byron Bay skydive, you’ll understand why.

The Hunter region may be known for its wineries, but adventurers know it offers something just as intoxicating: Skydiving. Hunter Valley is home to one of Australia’s most scenic countryside views, and from 14,000 feet up in the air, it’s impossible not to appreciate it.

Your skydiving experience will have you soaring over the region’s vast landscape, letting you catch a glimpse of the Hunter River as well as the towns and villages across the valley. But before you marvel at their grandeur, you’ll experience what many consider to be the thrill by which all others are measured.

That thrill comes from jumping off a plane flying at 14,000 feet, then plummeting at a rate of 200 kilometres per hour for a full 60 seconds. During that free fall, you’ll either experience a rush you never have before, or revisit your life’s greatest buzz – the latter possible only if you’ve already gone skydiving in Hunter Valley.

That’s not all you have to look forward to. The most inspiring sights you’ve ever seen will be preceded by the most intense rush you’ve ever experienced. And it starts the instant you throw yourself off the plane and into the open air, entering a high-speed descent down to earth.

And when we say high speed, we mean it. You’ll be free falling at a pace of over 200 kilometres per hour, shooting through up to 7000 feet of sky in less than a minute.

During your descent, you’ll feel more alive than you ever had.

If you’re looking forward to your first skydive, this free fall will give you an adrenalin high you never thought possible. If you’ve done this before, then you’ll be reminded that there is no greater rush than skydiving in a stellar drop zone like Central Coast.
