Best views, best experience - An awesome experience purchased for my son for his 18th. He loved it and is something he will never forget. The team were fantastic and I rate them all highly. The views from the video and photos looked amazing and my son said it was spectacular. I couldn’t think of a better place for this experience. Some info that might help anyone who has booked this or is thinking about it, based on our experience. Firstly, it is very weather dependent. To the point that the first 2 bookings were postponed, the third booking they actually got kitted up and went up in the plane only to come back in the plane because there was too much wind. It is safety first all the way. Fourth time was the charm for us and our son had a great experience. I tried to find out how long it would take. Obviously this is also dependant on the day but in our experience - jump attempt 1 we got to the airport and it was literally lightening and thunder. We could have hung around for it to clear but decided to rebook. I think people who went on this day still did the jumps after the storm had finally cleared. Attempt 2 was all day rain, it was cancelled before we even left home (around 6am). Attempt 3, check in time was 6am, everyone must have been a little early as the plane was taking off about 615am Attempt 4, the actual successful jump! Check in was 7am. The plane went up at 745am, our son was back on land just after 8am. When we got there a group was landing and then another group went up before ours. Those three groups all landed at the airport. All in all I rate this highly as an experience, my daughter and parents both want to do this now! The team put safety first, were friendly and made the experience something to always remember (in the best way)! Shout out to Byron who had my son both days!

I want to go again! - Super fun. Best to wear dark pants as you land on your bum and could end up with grass and dirt stains on your pants. When you check in make sure you are in the same plane with the people you want to jump with. You may want to jump in separate planes so there is someone on the ground to take video of your landing. The price of pictures is $180 and goes up if you want a video. Overall the best part of our trip.

Berauschendes Abenteuer! - was an overwhelming adventure. Pure adrenaline. I felt like a glider pilot - unforgettable. I felt extremely safe from take-off to landing. My instructor Byron was simply the best!

Amazing experience to... - It’s such amazing experience to free fall from the plane & once the parachute opens you glide on down! And that birds eye view is so beautiful.

You must do this! - Unbelievable day. Amazing experience. Truely a must do in every life time. Slick professional company, most scenic place to jump ever. Great video and stills of my daughter was sent to us as we got in the car. Highly recommended. Trying really hard not to do it more often.

Great jump! - We had the best time jumping last week. I had Joe and husband had Byron. They were both fab and Bill on the ground was lovely and full of amazing life experiences. The views were amazing and it was not as scary as i was anticipating - more exciting. Landing on the beach was great fun. Thoroughly recommend it.

Incredible and so safe!! - This was the best experience of my life! i felt so safe the whole time me and my partner had the most amazing time, the view was insane! Thank you to my instructor Joe!!!!!

Best Experience Ever! - Absolutely phenomenal views of the Newcastle coast and the team was incredible going above and beyond to make sure we got the most of the experience and felt safe. Cant wait to do it again! Thanks guys!

The most amazing view for skydiving! - I went to Skydive Sydney-Newcastle for my milestone birthday early July and had the most amazing experience, jumping out of a plane at 15,000 ft in the air. My instructor Joe (tandem jump) was really friendly and the staff on the ground were great as well. The lady at the front desk was very welcoming and helpful. The Covid19 protocol has also been followed and you get a mask to wear on the plane and there are lots of hand sanitizers on the ground at various places around their facility. However, due to Covid, there was unfortunately no shuttle available. Thus, we had to rent a car in Sydney but it allowed us to explore the foreshore of Newcastle (Queens Wharf Hotel for lunch with a waterfront view) and its beaches (Nobbys Lighthouse to Newcastle Memorial Walk) in the afternoon/evening, so it turned out even better.
 I’m a big fan of adrenaline and extreme sport. It was my second time as I have already done it about a decade ago with my dad for another significant birthday in a rural area in North America (possibly 9,000 ft). Needless to say, the view I had in Newcastle was nowhere near comparable to the jump I did in the past. The view was really breathtaking & I still can’t get over the view and the feeling I experienced! I highly recommend this place. I always wanted to jump on the Australian coast and I hesitated for a moment this year between doing it in Wollongong or Newcastle. I'm really glad I did it in Newcastle because I really believe that Lake Macquarie and all the coves/bays/lakes really improve the already amazing ocean view. I didn’t know where to look, trying to get all the views at once! The color of the water was also incredible. I knew the view was going to be great because I had watched the videos and seen photos during my research, but that didn't even do it justice. It was a thousand times better in person. And it was a cloudy winter day. So I can only imagine what it looks like on a sunny summer day! I’ll probably have to come back to find out! 

 Stop thinking about it, do it! You won’t regret it! 

 P-S : Very happy also to have taken the video (handicam) & photos package (+$179), because it is really worth it with this view! I hesitated because I had already jumped in the past, but … once again, it had nothing to do with the view in Newcastle. I'm so happy to have video and photos to relive the whole experience over and over again! Plus, if you book your jump directly on their Skydive Australia website, you get a $20 voucher on merchandise. I got a t-shirt for $15 (regular price $35) and my friend got his tank top/singlet for free as it was on sale for $20.

 Do it.

Absolutely incredible, the view is breathtaking - Absolutely incredible. I wasn't nervous going up, but when the door opened and we were getting ready to jump, it hit me! Such a crazy feeling!
