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.

Reviews

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

  • 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…

  • 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!

  • The experience was amazing, made even better by the first class instructors. If you like to push yourself outside your comfort zone this is a must!

  • Was everything I hoped and more. Falling from 15000ft is simply the most awesome experience and one that everyone should try. Thanks to Henk for making the jump with me and letting me fly! The whole experience was so well organised.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Great experience! My first time tandem skydiving, initially very nervous but really enjoyed the entire experience, from the friendly staff to professional instructors.

  • 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!
