This is best experience you will ever encounter. Right from the get go staff are warm and friendly. Logan my tandem jumper was amazing and explained the whole experience and safety was second to none. Something I thought I ever had the nerve to do. I jumped out that plane and kanded with whole new perspective on life. Just brilliant!!
Best ever

Skydiving at Mission Beach was honestly one of the most unreal things I’ve ever done! The views were absolutely insane—crystal-clear water, endless beaches, and lush rainforest—but the craziest part? I saw a turtle swimming below while I was free-falling! Definitely a moment I’ll never forget. Massive shoutout to my legend of a guide, who made me feel super chill the whole time. I was a bit nervous beforehand, but he kept the vibes fun and totally put me at ease. By the time we jumped, I was just buzzing with excitement! And we landed on the beach! Talk about the perfect ending to an epic jump! If you're thinking about skydiving, DO IT HERE. Best decision ever, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat!
What an experience!

The guys helped us feel at ease and were super cool about the jump. We had never done this before and were very nervous. Thank you.

I couldn’t have asked for a better company to have done my Skydive with! This was something I had wanted to do since booking my Australia trip and it did not disappoint. My tandem instructor Mike was so friendly and really put me at ease before the jump which was much appreciated! I have come out with the best photos and videos as well but more importantly the core memory of skydiving over one of the most beautiful beaches on the east coast. Thank you to everyone at Skydive Australia for allowing these opportunities as the memories really will be for life!
Memories for a lifetime, book in with Austin and you will not be disappointed

I was a little nervous at the start as the receptionist seemed a bit blunt and rude at first. It also took a while to get going and seemed unorganised. The weather wasn't the best so I assume this is why. When I got to meet my instructor however, I felt totally at ease. Couldn't of asked for better. I wasn't nervous at all as he was super chill, knowledgeable and friendly. Thanks Austin you are the best.
Loved it!

Absolutely amazing experience! Holger was the best instructor ever and made me feel so comfortable and we had the best time! Strongly recommend doing it if you’re thinking about it even if it’s cloudy/ wet it’s still amazing!
