Description

Find out why everyone is talking about Skydive Wanaka. Go on, come and see for yourself...strap yourself to a beautiful stranger and jump from a perfectly good plane, freefalling from 9,000, 12,000 or 15,000 feet above NZ’s beautiful snow-capped mountains and lakes! Sound like a dream? Well, we can help you put that dream into reality.

Nestled in the heart of the Southern Alps in stunning Wanaka, Skydive Wanaka is New Zealand’s most spectacular, multi-award-winning, high altitude tandem skydive. If you are staying over the hill in Queenstown don't worry, we haven't forgotten about you. You can join in the fun using the shuttle service that departs from outside The Station Information Centre at 7.45am on selected days, or you are welcome to self drive to the dropzone in Wanaka. This unbeatable adrenaline-pumping experience snatches views of Mt Cook, Mt Aspiring, glaciers, lakes and rivers! Keep the memory and your huge freefall grin forever with freefall DVD and digital pictures. We are waiting for you!
