How old do you have to be to go skydiving in Melbourne?
Skydiving in and around Melbourne is one of the ultimate adrenaline-pumping experiences you can have in this fun-loving city.
Soaring 15,000 feet in the air, you and your guide will leap out of a plane and fly effortlessly above either the Port Phillip Bay, Yarra Valley or Great Ocean Road, with each location providing spectacular views as you descend at rapid speed to ground below!
You have to be over the legal age of 18 to skydive in Melbourne, with 12 – 17 year olds requiring parental or legal guardian accompaniment to partake.
This unforgettable experience is only made more exciting by the fact you will be doing it in one of Victoria’s most beautiful locations, with plenty to do once your feet are firmly back on dry land, including:
The Great Ocean Road
With a dropzone at the gorgeous Barwon Heads, the gateway to the Great Ocean Road, you are sure to experience a fun-filled day once you’re done and dusted with this truly life changing experience!
The Great Ocean Road is one of Australia’s most beautiful stretches of coastline, and the eastern side of it is where some of the most fun happens in the air, on land and in the sea!
If you’re looking to continue your heart pumping Great Ocean Road adventure, be sure to head down to Torquay and get involved in a surf class. Torquay is the home of Aussie surfing, and so it’s a pretty awesome place to learn the ancient art of wave riding…
The Yarra Valley
The Yarra Valley is easily one of Australia’s most picturesque regions, which makes soaring above it at 15,000 feet all the more invigorating. You will guide above the wonderfully tranquil hills, forests, valleys and vineyards that make up this divine wine region, and you should treat yourself to a little calming glass of local Chardonnay once you reach the ground.
A skydiving/winery experience might sound like a strange combo and, to be honest, it is, but it will be an adventure that not many can say they have enjoyed and one that shouldn’t be overlooked once your feet touch the ground!
Melbourne
Melbourne is Australia’s cultural capital, and with sooo many exciting things to do once you’ve descended to Port Phillip Bay, it’s easy to see why skydiving in the city is one of the best things to do in the awesome city!
