GoSkydive

Skydiving In Bournemouth

A tandem skydiving experience like no other

The UK’s Specialist tandem skydiving centre just 50 minutes from Bournemouth

The UK’s specialist tandem skydiving centre just less than 1 hour from Bournemouth. GoSkydive is the UK’s only specialist first-time tandem skydive centre. Located in Salisbury on the central south coast just 50 minutes from Bournemouth, GoSkydive is your closest tandem skydiving centre. If you are travelling to us from Bournemouth by car our centre is easily accessible by the A338. So if you have never done a parachute jump before and are looking to tandem skydive near Bournemouth, GoSkydive is the closest specialist centre.
At GoSkydive, customers from Bournemouth and across the UK are taken through a customer journey that cannot be matched by any other skydiving centre in the UK. We are the only centre that specializes in parachute jumps for first time skydivers. But what does that mean? It means that we only do tandem skydives – you won’t be competing for time and space with sports jumpers – the whole day is built around you and other first-time skydivers.
We’ll consider your travel time and try and get you booked in later in the day, we’ll keep you updated with weather reports to, where possible, avoid unnecessary delays. There will be a briefing within 30 minutes of your arrival, you’ll receive full training in a simulated environment and there will be a whole team of people on hand to support you at all times. The view from the skydive in Salisbury to Bournemouth is visible on clear days. From the jump height, the Bournemouth coastline can be seen. When looking south west towards Bournemouth, the view of the city is flanked by the New Forest on the left, and Cranbourne Chase on the right.

Charity Skydives Bournemouth

If you’re thinking of a way to raise money for a good cause, tandem skydiving for charity is a great way to do it.

It is not only admirable that you are brave enough to jump out of a plane at 15,000 feet and that people give generously to your cause – but you also get to have the most amazing life-changing experience. Thousands of charity skydives are done by GoSkydive each year, and here’s one – Zoe Ball’s jump for MNDA.

In doing a tandem skydive for charity, you’ll be doing something life changing that will attract people to sponsor your cause. A staggering half a million pounds was raised for good causes by GoSkydive in 2015, more than any other skydiving company in the UK.

  • Absolutely incredible experience, one I feel absolutely honoured to have had. Myself and my partner did it together as a belated birthday present after various postponements for 1.5 years which Josh, the main person I had email contact with, was very accomodating. I was nervous for weeks in the lead up to it but the centre staff and my instructor, Alex, were absolutely fantastic. An experience of a lifetime, I want to go back for more!

  • Sensational service from start to finish. The check in, induction, kitting up, instructor, camera man – everybody – was so supportive and friendly. The experience was terrifying, but the staff could not have done anymore to get me through the day! I felt completely safe, and despite how many jumpers they had on the day I felt the attention to detail and service was so personalised for each one of us. I highly recommend using this company if you are considering a sky dive, especially if you are a first timer. My sincere heartfelt thanks to the wonderful team, especially Mias, my instructor – I was certainly not an easy person to have due to my nerves!

  • I had a 10,000ft skydive giving me a 30 second freefall. The jump was one of the best experiences of my life, I absolutely loved it. Even after the parachute opened the thrill continued with stunts and amazing views over Wiltshire. I am glad I chose GoSkydive for my first ever jump, the team are awesome, very well organised, efficient, and super friendly. I loved that they were all genuinely excited for me and vey chatty. My instructor was called Mias and he made me feel very safe and he completed the whole experience. I opted for a free-fall photographer package which I thought was a bit pricey at the time, however, the video was ready within 1hr after my jump with a link emailed to me for downloading. The quality of the video was superb. When I seen the work that was involved in capturing my experience, I understood why it was so expensive. This is a video that I will watch repeatedly reliving this amazing day.

  • An amazing day with GoSkyDive Salisbury, with a great team of trainers, instructors, tandem jumpers, filling all new jumpers with much needed confidence.
    A really professional but still fun approach throughout the day from the team made for a very enjoyable experience.
    Great little cafe on site to keep the teas/ coffee and snacks coming while you wait to be called for your flight and jump,

  • 57, 53 and 31 year olds all did tandem jumps 7000 feet. Amazing experience. Professional, kind and patient staff. Even though the weather dictates the jumps, the team there kept us informed at all times. A number of times once you are kitted up, you are checked and double checked. This makes you feel very safe and reassured. The fun relaxed and totally safe tandem jumpers were perfect companions for jumping. Over one of the best days ever. I’m still buzzing about it the next day. Throughly recommended this high class company.

  • I jumped with my team to raise money for Charity on Friday. Although the weather was rather rubbish in the morning, which meant we were delayed by 5 hours, it was well worth the wait. The team also kept us in the loop and we had some yummy sausage sandwiches in the cafe. I hate that I cannot remember the name of my tandem guy but he was amazing. Although there were some cheeky wind up merchants on the flight, he was super supportive and made me feel at ease. He made the experience magical as we did some fun spins and even flew through a cloud and saw a rainbow! When we landed I got a huge hug and he said how proud he was of how I did. The first time I jumped I had a camera but it was nice this time around to go without as I could focus on the experience and not the camera if that makes sense. This was my second skydive (8 years apart) and I can officially say I have the bug! I am now desperate to save up to get my licence. I think my instructors comment of ‘Welcome to my office’ whilst thousands of feet in the air probably did it. I cannot recommend this enough. Don’t let your nerves put you off! It’s super safe and you are in the best hands. Thank you Go Skydive! I will likely be seeing you again soon…
