Had an amazing experience , was in Mexico to celebrate my birthday. Originally my jump was scheduled for Wednesday. But due to bad weather in the forecast the guys asked if they could move up the date. Which was fine with us. Definitely appreciated it. We jumped on such a clear and beautiful day. I’m scared of heights, and even tho I was nervous, the way the instructor explained step by step on how the jump was going to happen definitely gave me reassurance. We asked questions, and for him to go over it again and he did with no problem. Even on the airplane they were both reassuring. When it came to the jump. It went exactly how he said it would. And than :: free fall:: was amazing. The landing was smooth. Definitely want to give the staff from the office to the staff on the beach landing a big thank you!! You guys are amazing. And definitely would recommend!

Such an incredible experience! A definite must-do with Skydive Playa.
There aren’t many places to go skydiving that are as pretty as the beaches of Playa del Carmen, Mexico. After seeing the skydivers landing perfectly on the beach 100s of times, my wife and I decided to book a jump with Skydive Playa.
Freefalling from 10,000 feet is an incredible feeling! The 40 second freefall was by far one of the coolest experiences we’ve ever had. We couldn’t believe how beautiful and blue the beach was. It looked like a Caribbean postcard. We could see all the way to Cozumel. The jump was worth it just for the amazing views. Skydive Playa actually lands directly on the beach! Our tandem jumpmasters were amazing and made sure we felt extremely safe! One of them told us that he had over 18,000 jumps!! (That’s 1 a day for 49 years!)
It’s always a good idea to do some research before you jump out of a plane. So before we jumped, we researched the best companies to skydive with and found Skydive Playa. They’re the best in the area when it comes to safety. Michel, the owner of the company, received his aviation and skydive certifications in the US and employs the best jumpmasters and pilots. Our jumpmasters took care of everything so we only had to focus on having a good time!
It was a once in a lifetime experience that is a definite must-do while in Playa del Carmen!

We simply contacted them on Facebook and they got back to us immediately. My husband has wanted to skydive and we had seen them from the beach. They picked us up at our hotel the training took a few minutes and off they went. The centre drove me to the area on the beach where he would land. The jump starts out with a brief free fall than you slowly lower over the beautiful ocean and a very soft and safe landing on a white sandy beach.He jumped tandem and the instructor was awesome. Safe and amazing. I forgot my phone in the vehicle and they drove it back to the hotel. I would recommend them to anybody interested in a bit of excitement with a very safe and customer service oriented company. I would give them 6 stars if I could.

The full process from start to finish was very professional and considering I have a massive fear of heights Skydive Playa put me totally at ease from the second I made the initial enquiry. I absolutely loved every second and would recommend as a must do opportunity to anyone visiting the area. 10/10!

Amazing !! Everybody was so kind and sweet… as a very very scared person I have been relaxed by them! On top of that, we feel that safety is a priority above everything… But of course, you feel sensations that never in your entire life you will experience again. Javier y Gonsalo were so professionnal on the skydive and in the plane.
Go for it, you won’t regret it I sware, it was unbelievable.

I am currently vacationing in Tulum and a friend of mine highly recommended this company for skydiving. I recently got my skydiving A license and was looking forward to jumping in Mexico. I called them to schedule my jumps and I had the absolute worst experience. The person who answered the phone was not only rude and basically told me to f-off but then he hung up on me after 20 seconds. What kind of customer service is this? I recommend this company work on the way they speak to not only potencial clients but to people in general.

This was a first-time jump at age 57. These folks are very professional, making sure we jumped when conditions were right, and all went smoothly.
Just an incredible memorable experience. It flies by (literally), and good just to enjoy it, knowing you're in safe hands. Thank you!

I’ve been wanting to skydive for quite some time and after seeing these guys land in front of the hotel many times I decided to do it. They pick you up at the Reef Hotel and take you directly to the Playa airport. You receive great instructions and watch others in videos to get comfortable. Your fears are addressed and off you go to 10,000 feet in a small plane with the most amazing views of the water, beach and clouds. Before you know it, you are in tandem soaring over the Riviera Maya free falling for about 40 seconds and then soaring over the water and beach. Thanks to Gilmer for helping me check a bucket list item off my list. I can’t wait to do it again soon. Trust me you will love every minute of the experience.

Hey there, I'm looking to do my first jump ever with them later this month. I'll admit I'm a bit nervous and anxious about it and have been trying to research if these guys have any accidents but can't seem to find any. Just wanted to confirm if they performed checks before boarding the plane and had briefing sessions? Also, what is the cost for video and photos? I've seen 99 USD but that is serious unreasonable

My wife and I are coming back to Cancun on June 1st. When we were last in Cancun we booked a sky dive with you but due to high wind this was cancelled twice so in the end we gave up. Like I say we are back in Cancun on 1st of June and would like to do the jump we wanted to do back in 2010 however good living and extended years has resulted in me putting on a few extended pounds. I know weigh clothed 17stone 3lbs. In UK there are sky dive clubs that can take people up to 18stone but I'm sure I saw on your web site 220lbs max which is only 15stone 7lbs. Would you be able to accommodate me and my larger body or should I cross skydive off my bucket list? Thanks
Highly recommended best company with best guides!

You sign your life away at their shop, check your own insurance to see if you’re covered with dangerous sports activity’s (if you haven’t asked for it, then probably no).
