Rhys was amazing! I had the absolute best time!! I was quite afraid to go for it beforehand as I have a slight fear of heights but Rhys made me feel comfortable and supported throughout the experience! Would definitely recommend getting the video and photos package, the video was amazing and well produced! I couldn’t stop rewatching it.

Skydiving with Skydive Australia has been one of the best experiences I’ve ever had! From being picked up right next to my hostel & getting some info on what to expect from the driver to getting checked in and finally jumping out of the plane. My instructor G was amazing and funny which made the experience even better!
Airlie Beach is the perfect place to do your skydive with amazing views, sunny days & an unforgettable free fall. Definitely recommend it!☺️

It was less scary than I expected, and I can't wait to go skydiving again 🙂
Thank you so much!!!

A nearly perfect skydiving experience, they provided on-time airport pick-up and drop-off service, the instructor was very responsible and provided clear teaching. After take-off, you can see the magnificent island scenery and enjoy the soaring experience like a bird.

Once in a lifetime enriched by the confidence and prowess of tandem masters, and all others who received us, instructed us, geared us up, flew us up to 15 K feet, and shuttled us back from the landing area. The pics would speak for themselves - the thrill, the views, the safety measures!

The most amazing experience EVER!
I can’t put into words how incredible it was!
I had Jamie as my instructor and despite my nerves, he managed to reassure me and make me feel comfortable and safe!
This was my first skydive and I was so glad to have had Jamie as my instructor! Thank you so much!
My camera man was also amazing! The photos were fab and he was also so good at calming my nerves on the plane ride up to 15,000 ft!
I would 1000/10 recommend this company to anyone, they were incredible and super friendly!
A memory I’m never going to forget! Thank you!🥰

Amazing Skydiving Experience
Skydiving was thrilling and so much fun! I wasn’t scared at all, and the view from above was absolutely stunning. My instructor was friendly, funny, and great at capturing videos.
However, I felt a bit dizzy just before landing. If you’re prone to motion sickness, it’s a good idea to take medication in advance.
