Have you always wanted to skydive in New Zealand, but been waiting for that ‘perfect’ moment? It’s time to stop making excuses.

The best things to do, sights to see & places to eat!

Skydiving in New Zealand is something that everyone should do at least once. It’s an experience like no other, an unforgettable combination of fear, excitement, and accomplishment. But what drives someone to skydive for a job?

Skydiving Abel Tasman had an epic Labour Weekend, hosting 40 sports skydivers from around the world and joining in on the very first Lift Off Abel Tasman.

Skydiving over the Abel Tasman is a feast for the senses. Spectacular sights of snow-capped mountains, golden beaches, and three national parks. The sound of the wind as you free-fall from 16,000 feet. The feeling of weightlessness as your parachute opens. The taste of adventure as you launch yourself into the unknown.

When’s the best time to skydive in New Zealand? Anytime, of course. Skydiving is often seen as a summer activity, but every season – yes, even the middle of winter – offers a unique experience.

It was March 25, 1979, when Stuart Bean first threw himself out of an aeroplane at 3000 feet.
