Jumping from a plane 15,000 feet in the air sounds terrifying, but skydiving is an experience you will never forget. You will have staff help you prepare for the jump. Then a tandem jumpmaster will be with you for the entire jump. As you jump you will freefall for about a minute going over 220 kilometres per hour. Your tandem jumpmaster will open the parachute which you will then glide through the sky for about five to seven minutes. This is the best time to take in the views from up above. It’s best to go skydiving in the morning to have the clearest skies and to avoid a long wait time. There are not one but three skydive locations in Victoria!

St Kilda

St Kilda is the closest skydiving location to Melbourne city. When 15,000 feet in the air, you can see so much of St Kilda, the city, and surrounding areas. People who have done skydiving in St Kilda love seeing St Kilda Beach, Albert Park, and Melbourne city. Anyone who skydives in St Kilda gets a bit of everything with the landscape.

Great Ocean Road

The Great Ocean Road is known for the long scenic road along the coastline of Victoria. Now, imagine skydiving above the road and take it all in from up above. At this skydiving location, you can jump from 12,000 or 15,000 feet. Take in the views of the ocean and the Great Ocean Road and see if you can spot any of the famous landscapes! You’ll be able to see Bells Beach, Apollo Bay and so much more.

Yarra Valley

Skydiving over the Yarra Valley will give you a view of the green landscapes and vineyards. You can even see Port Phillip in the distance! After your parachute opens, this is the best chance to soak up the view. You will be able to see the countryside of the farms, and vineyards, and in the distance, you can view Melbourne city’s landscape. Skydiving in the Yarra Valley is one of the most scenic skydives in Australia! And once you’re on land again, you may as well stop by a couple of wineries in the Yarra. Skydiving and wine sound like an odd combination, but it’s worth having a glass of wine after you’ve just skydived!

All three locations are entirely different from each other, so no doubt one is perfect for you!
