About
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! Skydiving in the Bay of Islands is truly an incredible experience. http://skydivebayofislands.com/

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Could not recommend this place more for a Skydive. Not only are the views incredible but the staff are so lovely and funny.
I did the 16,000ft jump with Prashant and I couldn’t recommend him enough, fantastic guy, very funny and he some great photos and videos for me. I felt super safe and looked after throughout. Thank you!!!

This is my 4th jump here, and it took my breath away once again. Getting to jump at 18,000 feet and onto the waitangi treaty grounds with the most beautiful view! I couldn't have asked for anything better. Huge thanks to Paige who helped me get all ready to go for my jump and to Andrew, my tandem master, for the incredible experience. I will definitely be coming back for my 5th very, very soon.

Had a fabulous jump and was lucky enough to be able to land in Waitangi Treaty Grounds. Amazing experience and the whole team was great. Thanks so much to Paige for organising and to Prashant, my instructor, for landing me safely (again)

First time sky-diving!! I'm pretty terrified of heights but everything ran so smoothly and my instructor Andrew Mac Millan made me feel very safe and secure and most importantly reminded me to have fun! What an incredible experience, I highly reccomend going with these guys, they know what they're doing! Also highly reccomend getting the video, it was so much better than I expected. Thanks again Skydive BOI! What a blast!!!

Amazing experience! My first skydive and certainly not the last! My instructor Prashant was the friendliest and I felt safe! He did a really good job for the video! Thanks
But I expected the flight by plane was a little longer on the Bay of Islands. It was very busy.

This was such an amazing and breathtaking experience with insane views of the Bay of Islands. My instructor Prashant was fantastic, especially seeing as it was his first jump with someone, he doubled checked all my gear and talked me through what I needed to do in the plane and out of the plane multiple times, making me feel very safe and comfortable. He also did a brilliant job of taking the photos and videos throughout the entire jump, I was really pleased with how they turned out. Thank you to the entire team for their professionalism, it made me feel very at ease!

We're glad to hear you had an amazing time! Prashant was just messing with you - he's done thousands of jumps prior to his jump with you haha. But it's great to hear he was able to make you feel at ease and still joke around with you despite how nervous you were feeling

The experience was truly amazing. Intense, but incredible, and the view was beautiful. My instructor Prashant was very good. I felt comfortable under his guide and I wasn’t nervous or scared at all when leaving the plane. 20/10 would come skydive again

It's great to hear Prashant was able to prevent you from feeling scared when leaving the plane - that's what we love to hear!
We're glad to hear you enjoyed your jump and that you now have the skydiving bug! Hopefully we'll see you back again soon.

I am currently 33 weeks pregnant and my partner reckons I'm sweet to skydive. Can you confirm for us that it's not. Cheers.
Hi, We do not jump with anyone who is pregnant.
What's an approximate cost for a tandem jump?
