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.

  • An amazing experience! Very professional and stunning sky diving venue! All the staff were amazing at making you feel relaxed, reassured and prepared. One member of staff, Tom, was so kind and considerate it calmed my nerves from the get got. He made a concerted effort to greet me as soon as I arrived and strike up a conversation, which was so welcoming! I can’t praise these guys enough. Please check them out!

  • GoSkydive in Salisbury is absolutely fantastic! I did my first tandem skydive yesterday afternoon and I could not have been more impressed with the team. They were all professional, very friendly, organised and efficient and the whole experience is planned perfectly. My Instructor, George, was quite simply amazing! A truly lovely man who really took the time to calm my nerves and to make sure I had an awesome time. Thank you, George!

  • 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 accommodating. 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!

  • What an amazing day, from the moment we got the staff were fantastic, they were really friendly and very helpful. It was a well oiled machine I have to say. I want to say a massive thank you my instructor Richard who was an absolute legend on the day and helped me overcome my fears! I’ve now ticketed off a sky dive from my bucket list and if you want a place to go and do your first skydive then I recommend GoSkydive in Salisbury. Well done and thank you for making my day so special.

  • This was such an amazing experience I don’t really know where to start! I was quite anxious before the jump, but all the staff are very professional and relaxed they made me feel safe, yet still excited about the impending Skydive! The atmosphere was really happy and fun, especially in the plane on the way up, which really helped with the nerves. My instructor, Fab was great – very reassuring and friendly, and the enthusiasm of the whole team was infectious. I felt really well looked after and I’m sure this experience has really helped with my confidence as they made me feel like a hero! I’m so glad I did this!
