Thrill that will put a smile on your dial :-) - Very welcoming staff, I jumped with Luke who was an absolute champ. Luke has 15years under his belt, so very calm and comfortable environment. Short bus ride to airport, then about 10-15mins till you're up in the sky and ready to dive. The thought of jumping out of a plane terrified me until I took the leap, which I will never regret. Great experience, must do!

First time jumper. Can’t wait to jump again - I am a first time jumper and I jumped with Rick.
Over the moon with the experience, would recommend the skydive experience to anyone. Rick had a great ability to put me at ease and I would definitely jump again. I purchased the video package and am grateful I did so. Great day, great team, great experience. Can’t speak highly enough of my experience.

Life Changing - Thank you, Gold Coast Sky Dive, for offering this experience. Thank you to my Kids for giving me this. Thank you to Luke my instructor, you were amazing and so kind. I was initially terrified and didn't want to do it. I am so thankful and grateful to all of you who believed I could do it and got me there. This was the best experience of my life and I've lived a bit. To anyone who like me doesn't think they can do it, swallow the fear. Make sure you buy the video too; I've already watched it twice and cried both times with the joy of having done this. I'll be back!!!!

🌟BEST EXPERIENCE EVER 🌟 - 🌟BEST EXPERIENCE EVER 🌟
Being a total newbie wanting to tick of a bucket list item I made the best decision ever in choosing Gold Coast Skydive 🪂 the team are the absolute bomb ! From the first call to book my jump to the day of jumping I could not of asked for more professional, easy going, amazing people. From the team behind the scenes to the SUPER AWESOME instructors I could not recommend them highly enough. They made my day so enjoyable & fun, there expertise in calming nerves is incredible as I had a wigout about exiting the plane & it was no fuss all good let’s go 😁 & I cannot thank my instructor Mike enough for giving me the biggest adrenaline rush of my life ! Phil, my outside cameraman is impeccable at his job, giving me footage of memories I’ll have for life of my first jump 😁 I felt super safe with the whole team, using only the best equipment available, attention to detail was paramount for them. Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou ! I’m now hooked & will be booking my next jump in a couple of weeks 🤭 If you’re thinking of skydiving & are in any doubt, seriously get in touch with these guys ❣️

Get the jump in 👍 - I organised the parachute jump 9 months in advance as a present for my wife and our 18 year old neice. Gold Coast Sky Dive kept in communication and closer to the date advised of a couple of changes to the jump times to ensure we had the best possible weather window. On the day the conditions were perfect to achieve a hieght of 13,000 feet. The office and dz was ideally sighted on the beach and only a couple of minutes apart, so no faff whatsoever. I could even see the aircraft taking off and gaining height from the beach. I booked the video and photo package for our 2 jumpers and we sat and reviewed it all evening reliving the moment. The tandom pilots did a fantastic job of getting as much content as they could, and their enthusiasm to their customers made the experience very personal. All in all I was well chuffed with the result and would highly recommend booking with GCSD. If you have ever wanted to tandom then your pretty much going to get your jump in here. Unlike the many aborted days I've tried to book it in the UK. Top Job all Thanx.

Best Experience!! - This was my 4th jump with this company and I could just keep coming back for more. As a regular customer, I felt like I was part of the family as I have developed a bond with the staff! Every skydive just keeps getting better and better, with Luke taking me on a second skydive with him and showing me lots of awesome tricks under the parachute! I loved every minute of it! The flips when exiting the aircraft being the fun part of the free fall, and driving the parachute after it deploys was amazing!
I honestly can’t wait for the day I go for my skydiving licence, and I can’t wait to come back for more tandems in 2024! 💕

Skydive Experience - It was my first time going skydiving and it won't be my last. I got Mike as my tandem and he had me laughing the whole time. I don't know why I felt so nervous before getting there as it's the best experience ever. totally rate the Gold Coast Tandem skydive, if you are going to the Gold Coast and thinking about it. Stop thinking just do it you will not be disappointed.
