What To Expect
Make your way to Moorabbin Airport where you will begin your skydiving experience. As you jump out of the plane, see the city of Melbourne sprawling like patchwork as you exit the plane from 15,000 feet and fall into your tandem skydiving adventure. As you skydive, you’ll free-fall over an unbeatable view of Melbourne curling around the sparkling expanse of Port Phillip Bay. Securely attached to your experienced tandem instructor, you will be guided through your entire skydive. Your adventure will begin with a safety briefing followed by a scenic plane ride to height. As the excitement builds, your expert instructor will prepare you for the countdown and together you will make the ultimate jump from up to 15,000 feet above the stunning Victorian coastline. After you experience free-fall reaching speeds of up to 220km/h for up to 60 seconds, your instructor will pull the chute and you will soar serenely like a bird for 5-7 minutes taking in the breathtaking views. If you are feeling brave, you're also able to take control and steer the parachute.

Great experience but I’m a one and done kind of person!

4.00Great time! Skydiving is NOT for the faint of heart. I was definitely very anxious going into it, but Cleave made me feel very at ease! He kindly tried to distract me as I spiraled about injury and fatality statistics. Skydive Australia was great with communication. They pushed my drop time back by a few hours due to the weather. Apparently this is very common. My group caught a little rain before we were meant to go up and had to wait it out. This only added to my anxiety and anticipation. The drop itself wasn’t as exhilarating or euphoric as I expected. I ended up feeling very nauseous (despite taking anti-nausea pills) and threw up when we hit the ground. I kept my eyes shut during most of the fall because I was so afraid to look down! All in all, I’m probably not the best candidate for this sport, but I’m glad I did it with skydive Australia! Cleave actually drove me back to Fitzroy (where I was staying) because he lives in the area! He went above and better! Five stars for cleave!
I had Simon and he made...

5.00It was an amazing experience and I'm so glad that I did it. I did not tell anybody that I was going for this activity until I did it! When I sent the photo and video to my family and friends, their reaction ~ Priceless! 😅 Thanks to my instructor Simon for bringing me back to earth safely. I will do it again!!
Awesome Experience
