Strap yourself to a beautiful stranger for the experience of a lifetime with Skydive Wanaka - New Zealand's most spectacular, multi award winning high altitude skydive!
Climbing high above the stunning southern alpine scenery in the custom built skydive plane, your incredible scenic flight captures breath-taking 360 degree views of NZ's highest mountains, glaciers, lakes and rivers.
Reaching a height of 12,000ft the time arrives to leap with your highly qualified jumpmaster from the perfectly good aeroplane into pure air and the adrenaline rush of a lifetime.
Experience the heart pumping exhilaration of freefall as you reach terminal velocity at an eye watering speed of 200kph. After 45 seconds of freefall the chute opens soaring you smoothly over the beautiful scenery below, landing you safely and gently back at the drop zone.
A must do on any bucket list, and an absolute must do with Skydive Wanaka! Discover why this is the New Zealand Skydiving experience everyone is talking about.
Hi Lucas, Thank you for skydiving with us and for you awesome feedback. Stoked to hear you enjoyed the skydive experience with us a second time after 8 years. Looking forward to welcoming you back again in another 8 years for the 15,000ft skydive.
Totally awesome. Sean who was my tandem partner helped calm me, the 10 minute plane ride was beautiful, the jump exciting and I felt safe all the way through the experience...it's a must!
Hey Tracy! Thank you for your positive feedback on your experience with us. We are glad to hear that Sean made you feel safe and calm during the skydive. Our team strives to make sure you have an absolutely smashing experience. We hope to share this experience with you soon. Regards Skydive Wanaka Team

We had a few issues. We booked for 11am and they moved this to 3pm which we were luckily able to still do. In the email we were advised to wear warm clothes but when we turned up everyone was in shorts and t shirts so we were uncomfortable for the duration as it wasn’t cold, even at altitude. It was highly disappointing that they were unable to provide the camera flyer package - when we asked what our options were, the staff member at reception was unhelpful and rude. They state this is ‘subject to availability’ on their website but cannot be sorted until on the day - yet you have to cancel 24 hours before to get a refund. Skydives and the photo packages are very expensive so this is not good enough for a once in a lifetime experience. The remark that we “should have gone to Queenstown if we wanted that” and “not to rub salt in the wound but if you’d been here earlier it was available” (we had arrived 30 minutes prior to our start time and the website indicates you cannot pre-book) were unhelpful and not appreciated. Our tandem masters were great, though my partner got better pictures and video from the handicam than I did - my tandem masters arm are in all of them. Again, disappointing at such a high cost. I found the jump itself to be uncomfortable with pain and pressure in my ears which distracted me from enjoying the skydive. We both found the parachute part uncomfortable as the harness dug in so tightly (and the others we jumped with agreed with this). On the whole we were dissatisfied with the price for the experience, reception service, and handicam photos/video.
Hi, Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback about your recent experience with us. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you encountered during your visit. We understand that changes in scheduling can be frustrating, and we're sorry that we had to adjust your jump time. Regarding the attire advice, we appreciate your input and will certainly review our communication in this regard. We're truly sorry for any disappointment you faced regarding the camera flyer package. We understand that this is a significant part of the experience for many of our guests, and we will work on improving the clarity of our booking process. The comments you mentioned from our staff member are not in line with our service standards, and we deeply regret any unhelpful or rude behavior you encountered. We will address this internally to ensure a better experience for future guests. We're glad to hear that your tandem masters provided a positive experience. However, we're sorry to hear about the issues you faced with the handicam photos and the discomfort during the jump itself. Your feedback is extremely valuable to us, and we take it seriously. We apologize for any shortcomings and hope that you may consider giving us another opportunity to provide a more satisfying experience in the future. Once again, we're sorry for your overall dissatisfaction, and we appreciate your time in sharing your thoughts. Best regards, The Skydive Wanaka Team
