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.

  • 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.

  • 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 accomodating. 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!

  • I’m telling you if you want to do a Skydive 🪂 this is the place. Short trip from London but great atmosphere and the team there is amazing. Today was my 40th birthday and I wanted to do something different and it was worth every penny. My Instructor “Crazy Dutchman Henk” was so cool and a bunch of fun, my cameraman was absolutely bonkers but they mate a great team and the experience was EPIC! I did a 10,000ft jump but will definitely be going back to do the 15,000….BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!

  • 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!

  • 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!!

  • 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!

  • 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!
