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.

Call Gaby in the charity team 01722 442967 or email charities@goskydive.com for more info on our charity affiliations.

  • There are no words to really capture how it was. Sensational, exceptional, exhilarating are just a few words that spring to mind. The whole set up on the day is brilliant, from start to finish. The staff are without exception awesome, all dedicated to making the day memorable. The communication throughout the event was spot on. The facilities were superb. The instructors are AMAZING, especially my Alex! Patient, encouraging and informative about everything we were doing/seeing. If you have half an inkling to do a skydive, DO IT with Goskydive in Salisbury. You won’t regret it!

  • Mine was a total surprise, I found out what I’ll be doing half an hour before the jump. Had a huge adrenaline rush, who wouldn’t be a bit nervous? 1st time.. and they took care of everything… So my message to anyone wanting to do this.. Relax and enjoy! Great team, great instructor, really organized, very clear instructions, good facilities on site. AWESOME EXPERIENCE!!! Absolutely recommend GoSkyDive.

  • Everyone here is so friendly. Throughout the day the updates regarding the weather where honest and accurate. All the instructors are super friendly and are good at calming nerves for those who are terrified but still want to get it done. A big shout out to Robbie who was my instructor for my jump at 15,000ft! Would highly recommend this to anyone! They sure do make your first jump one to remember.

  • 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!

  • The team were very professional and everything was well organised. The training was given in a good way but with some humour to calm the nerves. Family and friends were welcome to go. Every stage was explained well. It was a very good experience

  • I went from terrified to the most amazing experience in my life.
    Each and every member of Go Sky dive were fantastic.
    Mias was so so reassuring with me even though I was his 14th that day!
    My camera man, oh my god my photos and video are just 100% perfect

  • Wow! What a experience that was. Absolutely mind blowing. George my instructor was amazing, made sure I had the best time and felt safe. Couldn’t have asked for someone better than him. Ticked off my bucket list and onto the next. Thank you and will definitely do it again 🙂

  • 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…
