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.

Tens of thousands of people have chosen to jump with us. Here's some of what they say!

  • 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!

  • Amazing thing to do. Training was good and the team there seemed very safety focused and the filming was really good. Would highly recommend it.

  • I cannot praise the staff enough. Although the training is a serious matter, it was all given in a fun way. They are all so professional, and I am looking forward to jumping with them again in the future.

  • Omg! The experience is indescribable. I am still on an adrenaline high ever since I jumped on 25th of Nov, 2022. This has to be one of the best experiences in my life. I would like to take time out to mention about my skydive instructor Mr. Henk Post. He calmed my nerves before and during the fall and was extreme fun. He is crazy, funny, and professional- all at the same time. And the Go Sky Dive team is incredibly fantastic, experienced, and hands-on- right from the forms to instructions to kit to the final jump. Definitely gonna recommend the team to all my friends and family! Gosh! Thank you so so much!! Love to Henk and the GoSkyDive team!!

  • We had the best time doing our skydives for Southampton Hospitals Charity last week. I can’t explain how incredible it was. The whole team were amazing, special thank you to my instructor Mark who kept me calm and made the experience the best ever and to Fabian, my very own photographer who captured memories I will treasure forever! If I could do it all over again tomorrow I would!

  • Did a 15,000 jump today with Greg Russell as my instructor and he was amazing! Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Whatever they’re paying him isn’t enough, I’ll be back soon!

  • 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.

  • This was the most amazing experience ever! The staff were so friendly, weather updates the day before the jump were really good and we were kept updated throughout the day too. The totally epic camera package is an absolute must, photos and videos are sent the same day (mine arrived within an hour), they will be cherished forever! Cannot recommend them enough!
