Blue skies, blue waters, golden sands and sunshine is what we’re all about. Oh, and we LOVE skydiving! The thrill, the buzz and the pure adrenaline rush is something we look forward to. Going skydiving in the Bay of Islands is an awesome way to experience all of that and more! Choose from our four skydive heights – 9,000 ft, 12,000 ft, 16,500 ft and of course, NZ's highest skydive at 20,000 ft! After jumping from a perfectly good plane, you’ll get a chance to soak up the scenery of all 144 islands that make up the Bay of Islands. The view is guaranteed to take your breath away, and the exhilarating free fall will have you buzzing long after your feet touch the ground!

Such a great experience, can’t believe I jumped out a plane at 18,000 ft. The staff were all really friendly and my sky diving instructor Prashant was very experienced and I felt safe jumping with him. He was also cracking some jokes on the way up to the attitude which helped with the nerves. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who is considering it and start big and throw yourself at the 18,000 ft more free fall time and a great view.

I used Skydive Bay of Islands for my first time skydiving and I cannot recommend them enough. I was very nervous however my instructor Prashant made me feel comfortable and safe. He explained everything that was going to happen and continuously reassured me. I would recommend Skydive Bay of Islands to everyone and definitely recommend asking for Prashant!

Absolutely amazing experience!
The staff were helpful and friendly from the moment we walked in.
I felt safe every step of the way with the briefings, especially because I’m scared of heights and in the plane the tandem masters were incredible.
The jump was brilliant with views across the bay of islands.
Would high recommend this place for the professionalism, safety and all round experience!

Prashant was amazing, really put my at ease and made me feel confident, which is hard considering you’re about to jump out a plane! The team in general were great, very knowledgeable and supportive. Great packages available for pics, had an amazing time, couldn’t recommend enough!

My wife and I went for skydive 🪂 with Bay of Island sky dive company. It was amazing. Initially I was a bit unhappy about the price of video and photos. But after we saw the videos and photos, we felt that it was 100% worth. It’s a life time experience. Money can’t measure it. Our instructors were very skilled and had made our adventure a very enjoyable and relaxing one. I would recommend anyone who wants to do it, go for it with Sky dive Bay of island. They are a 5 star company to us. Thanks a million guys for making our adventure a very memorable experience.

The skydive excursion was my birthday present from my daughter Julia. We were on the cruise and Bay of Islands was one our our destination ports. The experience was unbelievable!! We have had so much fun!! The actual check in was very easy. We were pick up from our pier buy a van. The trip to the airport was very quick and amazing. We were able to see New Zealand beautiful landscape. We traveled with the group of 6 individuals and only two of us participated in the jump. But everyone had a great time!! The other family members could take a bunch of pictures and observe the whole process which was very interesting for them as well.
The instructor, specifically Prashant was very professional, they all created great atmosphere and we felt very relaxed and enjoyed our adventure! The views were incredible, the pictures show only so much but the actual experience was amazing and if we ever travel to New Zealand again, the skydive with Prashant and the Team will be definitely on our to do list!!
Thank you Prashant for the great experience and unforgettable memories !!

Brilliant first sky dive with these guys. highly recommend the 16,000ft which gives you more time in free fall. Crazy good experience, kept clam and informed all the way by Prashant's guidance making the whole thing feel very safe and under control!
looking forward to my next one, I'm hooked!

Everything from check in to the jump itself and receiving the pics and video of my time with Skydive Bay of Islands was done in a professional, enthusiastic and, most of all, SAFE manner. Ethan, my jumpmaster, was very calm but really made the jump fun at the same time. An awesome experience from start to finish!
