Skydive Byron Bay | How to get to Byron Bay Dropzone

Your instructor will take you through a 30-minute training session where you will learn about techniques and positions you will need to follow while diving. You will also meet your jumpmaster during this time. This training is brief because your jumpmaster will mostly control the fall. 

After the training, you will be secured to your diving equipment along with your jumpmaster and flown to 15,000 ft. Once you dive from the plane, you will free-fall for about 60 seconds until the jumpmaster deploys the chute. You will then glide down slowly for the next 5-7 minutes, allowing you to soak in the picturesque landscape of Byron Bay. 

Age: 

The minimum age to go skydiving at Byron Bay is 16. A signed consent along with a guardian should be present for divers aged 16-18. 

Weight: 

The maximum weight limit is 110 kg. If you weigh more than 95 kg, inform the facility beforehand to make the necessary arrangements. Additional charges will apply if your weight is more than 95 kg.

Wear t-shirts, joggers, track pants, or other activewear that are breezy and comfortable. Carry an extra jacket with you as it can get chilly at 15,000 ft. Wear closed shoes and trainers and avoid wearing loose clothes and accessories.

Breakfast cereal or protein-rich meals like eggs are good options if your jump is scheduled for the morning. If your anxiety prevents you from eating, have a smoothie to keep it settled during the jump.
