Peter, Oct 2017
Was very upset with Viator for failing to inform us thru email or mobile in advance that it has being postponed to 2 days later due to weather not suitable for the dive. It caused us so much of inconvenient. Nevertheless..it was awesome and thrilling to dive from 12000 feet on the scheduled day.

Great experience! We were all first...

Alfred N, May 2017
Great experience! We were all first time sky diving and initially got disappointed that our scheduled skydiving was canceled due to weather. However, they were very flexible in rescheduling and lucky had time in our schedule to set it for the next day. Needless to say, we jumped and had one of the best experience ever! Initially flying out to 14K feet with the view of Byron Bay was beautiful. However, jumping out looking at the same view at a different perspective was a whole new experience!

Sky Dive was an amazing experience...

Vaishakhi P, Jan 2017
Sky Dive was an amazing experience, I would highly recommend SkyDive Australia to any body visiting Gold Cost or Brisbane area. Sky Dive Australia staff was very courteous and helpful. The pickup from Brisbane also was very helpful. The Sky Dive itself, was an amazing experience - the views at Byron Bay were breathtakingly beautiful. Overall a great 5 star experience, worth every penny and time!!
