It was an amazing experience and I'm so glad that I did it. I did not tell anybody that I was going for this activity until I did it! When I sent the photo and video to my family and friends, their reaction ~ Priceless! 😅 Thanks to my instructor Simon for bringing me back to earth safely. I will do it again!!

Great experience but I’m a one and done kind of person!

Jenna_L, Apr 2025

Great time! Skydiving is NOT for the faint of heart. I was definitely very anxious going into it, but Cleave made me feel very at ease! He kindly tried to distract me as I spiraled about injury and fatality statistics. Skydive Australia was great with communication. They pushed my drop time back by a few hours due to the weather. Apparently this is very common. My group caught a little rain before we were meant to go up and had to wait it out. This only added to my anxiety and anticipation. The drop itself wasn’t as exhilarating or euphoric as I expected. I ended up feeling very nauseous (despite taking anti-nausea pills) and threw up when we hit the ground. I kept my eyes shut during most of the fall because I was so afraid to look down! All in all, I’m probably not the best candidate for this sport, but I’m glad I did it with skydive Australia! Cleave actually drove me back to Fitzroy (where I was staying) because he lives in the area! He went above and better! Five stars for cleave!

I had Simon and he made...

I had Simon and he made me feel so calm and safe. I really felt I could just focus on having fun and wasn’t nervous at all. Such a fun experience!

Amazing Experience!!

Need a refund after my partner refused to stick around for 7 hours due to the delay. When will I get my refund?

Skydive Melbourne Nov 22

Brian_S, Nov 2022

This was my second jump. The first in Hawaii four years ago. Good views of Melbourne and was able to enjoy the jump better second time around. The jump was well organised and Lucus a good instructor. If I can do a skydive at 64, anybody can do it.

This review ISN'T for MELBOURNE...

Book373, Dec 2017

This review ISN'T for MELBOURNE, it's for Sydney since the weather was bad two days in Melbourne and I couldn't jump there. But, instead had to jump in Sydney. Wow, what an event and fun time skydiving for the first time in my life doing a tandem jump with Andrew W form the Sydney branch, same company though! I show friends and family my video and pics and they totally cant believe I made the jump. Man it's nothing like coming out that door looking out from that high up and seeing the land, the cold air, the wind and you know it's for real and jump time-lol! Everyone at Skydive Australia in Sydney were great, very friendly, professional and a great experience that will live with me for life! I loved the video and pics I bought were incredible something I look at daily at some point. I've been wanting to skydive almost two years now and it happened and it was a blast! You would be amazed how many folks on Nov 24th were on the bus paying to jump out a plane, the bus was packed-lol! Thanks Skydive Australia and Andrew W!!!!

Great experience. Everyone must try...

Mohd Nasriq M, Nov 2017

Great experience. Everyone must try. Make sure you call 1-2 day early to confirm on the pickup point and time if you prefer to be picked up. And if you planned to buy the video, the company will charge extra 1.5. Make sure the videocam is your good side of face. :p

Had an amazing time, instructors...

Samual P, Aug 2017

Had an amazing time, instructors were experienced and friendly. Do note that photos and videos will cost additional and I recommend getting it. I went during winter and it was freezing cold. Go skydiving during the summer instead in the early morning.
