GoSkydive

Skydiving In the New Forest

A tandem skydiving experience like no other

The UK’s Specialist tandem skydiving centre just 60 minutes from the New Forest

The UK’s specialist tandem skydiving centre just half an hour from New Forest. GoSkydive is the UK’s only specialist first-time tandem skydive centre. Located in Salisbury on the central south coast just 30 minutes from New Forest, GoSkydive is your closest tandem skydiving centre. If you are travelling to us from New Forest by car our centre is easily accessible by the A338. At GoSkydive, customers from New Forest 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 specialises 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 the New Forest is visible on clear days. Looking south towards the coast shows the New Forest flanked by the Solent to its east and the Isle of Wight to its south.

Charity Skydives New Forest

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.

  • Massive thanks to instructor Chris. He took the time to explain everything to me right before the jump. I felt incredibly safe with him and wasn’t nervous at any point! The ground staff were also great. I cannot wait to come back!

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Brilliant experience, the whole experience was very well organised. Henk (my instructor) was fantastic. All staff I encountered were very professional yet very fun. On the whole it was the best day out and I would recommend a skydive to anyone, one more ticked off my bucket list.

  • 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.

  • The best skydiving company in the UK. Training before the jump always makes the jump feel safer. Lovely, friendly and professional staff, also the food is amazing to top it all off.
