You don’t need previous skydiving experience... The only thing a previous tandem skydive gives you is a better understanding of why people recommend Wanaka when asked where to skydive in NZ.
You’ll find the Wanaka tandem skydiving experience pretty hard to beat.Your NZ skydive experience starts with your briefing of skydiving, then meet your skydiving Instructor! Your instructor has many thousands of skydives and is ready to ensure you have the BEST skydive in New Zealand.
Just before you board our aircraft - say a few words for the camera -this is your proof. You take to the skies in a skydive plane – a custom-built Cresco 750 offering a comfortable, quick flight to altitude and maximum opportunity to take in the jaw-dropping views on the way up to your chosen skydive altitude.
12-15 minutes enjoying unrivalled and uninterrupted views of Wanaka’s world-renowned lakes and mountains.
Move toward the plane’s now-open door securely harnessed to your highly-qualified tandem skydiving instructor... Pause on the edge...
Sensory overload! You’re flying through the air at 200kph... You’re not falling you’re flying and the view is truly uninterrupted. Your adrenalin is flowing as your senses try to process the intensity of the experience... for 45 - 60 seconds!
Your parachute activates. You enjoy the view as you float – exhilarated – toward the ground.
Your feet touch the earth. You’re safely back on the ground after a smooth landing at the Skydive Lake Wanaka drop zone.
Take a moment to take in what you just did...

From the moment the accelerator hits the floor your adrenaline hits the roof, as you speed in mere centimetres of water along the famous Shotover River and deep into the spectacular Shotover River Canyons.
Jet the entire length of Hanmer's spectacular Waiau Gorge, raft down the Waiau Gorge Canyon and see the surrounding countryside, put yourself in control of a four-wheel quad bike and ride down river crossings, mud, dust and dirt tracks and leap off the historic 135 year old Ferry Bridge for a 35 metre free-fall to the river canyon below.
