Risk Warning:

Your participation in parachuting activities is inherently dangerous and may involve risks. These risks include, but are not limited to those arising from prevailing conditions such as weather or health conditions you may have. Despite careful packing, the parachute may open abruptly or not open correctly which may result in injury. Unintended incidents may occur during the aircraft flight, descent or on landing. Parachuting is done at the parachutists’ own risk. Any person parachuting, training to parachute, flying in any aircraft being used for parachuting or participating in any activity carried out by Skydive Australia may only do so on the distinct understanding that they do so entirely at their own risk.

Review for: Weekdays · 15,000 ft tandem skydive · Transfer from Sydney

It’s super convenient to have city pick-up and drop-off, and the skydiving schedule is fast and accurate. When I first saw that there were not as many skydiving students in Newcastle as in Wollongong, I thought there was something wrong there, but just because there were so few people in Newcastle, we could take turns super quickly. When we got on the plane, everyone finished the dance very quickly and returned to Sydney city. Needless to say, the skydiving process is absolutely amazing. I read a lot of experiences and said that there is not much uncomfortable centrifugal force when jumping out of the plane and falling freely. It really doesn’t. The excitement and anticipation are greater than the nervousness throughout the whole process. The instructor will basically cover everything. You only need to be responsible for your expression. Management is just three steps, simple! I heard from friends who have skydived in different places that skydiving in Australia is really cost-effective. Friends who have the opportunity to come must make sure to schedule it!

After paying in Klook , I need to pay extra Aud175 for the skydiving video and photos. But it worth. Newcastle has a very awesome view, I enjoy the view when we going up. When it arrived the height, the signal light turned into orange. Door open suddenly, meanwhile the coach counted “3,2,1” , JUMP! And I did it! Wao! I love the free dive and the view is really really beautiful!!!! My coach is funny, energetic, very professional. The staff there are also so nice. One more thing, since the group size of going to Newcastle is small, so you can go back to Sydney earlier and keep enjoy your journey.

Leaving a review pretty late but this was the single best experience in my life. Booking through Klook was so easy and then the people at Skydive Newcastle were just the sweetest of the lot. Clear, simple instructions. It was raining two days before the skydive so I kept praying to the rain-gods to take a break 🤪 It was the most beautiful day with clear blue skies. And omg what an exhilarating experience this was. DO NOT MISS OUT.

Got cancelled twice at the Newcastle location. Once due to an operational disruption and another time because of the weather. Thankfully, their customer service was kind enough to transfer me to their Wollongong location, and I finally got to skydive! 🪂 It was such a fun experience and honestly one of the best feelings ever. Everything felt safe and well-organised, including the transfer from Sydney.

Review for: Weekdays · 15,000 ft tandem skydive · Transfer from Sydney

The original tour was supposed to go to Newcastle, but we were only informed at 6:15 AM on the day of the tour that it was canceled. We were then offered to go to Wollongong for a skydive experience instead. The overall experience was quite good, but the original return time was 11:30 AM. However, we had to wait for everyone to finish their jumps, including those who joined later, so we didn't depart for Sydney until around 2:00 PM, arriving back in Sydney at approximately 4:00 PM. You should set aside a full day for this. You can also walk along the beach nearby, and the weather was nice, so it felt like visiting an extra place.

Although the pickup time was early, the shuttle was easy to find, and the driver was very friendly and enthusiastic even in the early morning. After everyone had gathered, the driver informed us of the estimated return time based on the number of participants. There was a rest stop halfway through the journey where we could use the restroom. Upon arrival, staff called out names, weighed us, and confirmed if we wanted to purchase the photo and video package. Afterward, we waited in an open area for our instructor to meet us. The instructor helped us put on our gear and taught us what actions to perform. Then, our instructor recorded the entire experience for us. The weather was excellent that day, and the scenery was clearly visible. The freefall part was thrilling, and after the parachute opened, we enjoyed the local scenery from the air. Midway through, the instructor let me try controlling the parachute myself, and then we landed safely. After all participants had completed their turns, we headed back. I purchased the video and photo package, and they quickly edited the video. Overall, the experience was great and very enjoyable. I'm so glad I participated in this activity!

it was an exciting and rewarding experience! everyone going to Australia should definitely consider joining! I am glad that I have decided to take part as it was an experience of a lifetime. The Newcastle tandem skydive is cancelled due to weather but the staff kindly rescheduled me to wollongong, so that I can have the jump before I leave.

I had an outstanding skydiving experience! My tandem instructor, Joe, provided valuable information throughout the jump, and Skydive Australia prioritized safety at every step. I appreciate Klook for facilitating such a memorable adventure!
