    Amazing experience! Altered my brain chemistry. Best instructors, photographers, and staff at a really great price. Would absolutely go again. Special shoutout to Rick - Thank you Skydive Hawaii!

    Skydive Hawaii provided me with such a great experience! Joe was tandem jumping with me and made my first time so memorable! I will forever be grateful for him and the experience he gave me. Will was my camera man and did awesome! I absolutely LOVED the service from everyone and how all the staff seemed to love skydiving as well. Truly great place with great people!

    Never in my life would I thought someone who hates falling (me) would voluntarily jump out of a plane but here we are. Joe my instructor was an absolute gem in making me feel comfortable both on the ground and in the air. He never failed to give me advance notice of what is happening so I don't freak out when it's a very high stimulation and new environment. Even in the air he allowed me to step on his feet when he released my harness which apparently isn't a normal thing. I was starting to feel nausea when landing and doing turns but they stayed with me until I felt good and gave me lots of tips on how to recover. The photo package is pricy and so is skydiving itself but it's really worth it for a once in a lifetime experience! You also get a certificate at the end of the for your first dive!

    Wow. What an amazing experience. Came here to celebrate my birthday and the operation and I were established in the same year. :-) I know for a lot of people it's their first time and there's nothing to compare against, but my friend who went with me had skydived before in Canada and said this was a better experience with a longer fall and with better videos and photos. There are so many reasons you should go with Skydive Hawaii! The check in process was easy and the staff were nice. My photographer Mike did such a great job! He really captured the essence of my first jump! He also was good at telling me and my friend how to pose. My tandem master John was funny and had 16 years of experience. He made me feel safe too. The prices were reasonable and they let me preview the photos before deciding to buy. (But you have to decide on the video before jumping, cannot add that later.) of course I ended up buying video and photos haha. The whole experience was so exhilarating and memorable. The jump from the airplane only gave me a small falling sensation, far less than a roller coaster. My coach pulled the stabilizer pretty soon so we weren't flipping around, but at one point we were spinning a lot lol. The landing was done by the coach as I had my legs up and I didn't stand up till they asked me to. O'ahu north shore is beautiful. We jumped from 14000 ft above the clouds and it's so cool to see the earth from high above. Such a wonderful experience! This is a sign. Call them to book and you won't regret it. :-)

    Bizzy's 18th birthday!

    Skydive Hawaii - A Birthday to Remember! I took my daughter to Skydive Hawaii for her 18th birthday, and it was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and at ease. Everyone was professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. As a parent, watching your child jump out of a plane for the first time is a mix of excitement and nerves--but the team did an amazing job explaining everything and keeping the energy positive. My daughter jumped tandem with an instructor who was experienced, upbeat, and super reassuring. I jumped with Papa Dop, who was amazing, with upwards of 35 years experience. We absolutely loved every second of it--from the breathtaking views of the North Shore to the adrenaline rush of the freefall. It was the perfect mix of thrill and beauty. My daughter hasn't stopped talking about it since! She's already talking about "next time!" If you're looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in one of the most beautiful places on Earth, Skydive Hawaii is the place to go. Thank you for helping us make our daughter's 18th birthday so special. We'll be recommending this to everyone we know!

    If Yelp allowed negative stars, this place would deserve it. We booked for 1:30 PM. Guess what? They made us sit around, then quietly decided to merge the 1:30, 2:00, AND 2:30 groups together. So instead of two people skydiving at 1:30, suddenly we're stuck in a crowd of four, like we signed up for a bus tour in the sky. And when we asked why, the Chinese owner told us, "the plane needs gas." Seriously? We're not stupid. That's the best excuse you can come up with? At least try harder next time--customers deserve honesty, not kindergarten-level stories. Talk about bait-and-switch and total lack of respect for customers' time. You don't pay skydiving prices just to be herded like cattle and rushed through the experience. Meanwhile, the skydiving company next door actually looked way more professional and better organized. If you want your jump to feel safe, special, and worth the money--go next door.

    I had an amazing first-time experience skydiving with my instructor, Adam, and my photographer Knox 10/10

    ignacio was the best instructor! such a fun exeperience :D (even though i did throwup after but thats bc im bad w dizziness)... the video was great and so glad it came with captures within, so i didn't have to manually screenshot! make sure you wear shorts that go past ur thighs though, i made a slight mistake on wearing jean shorts and the harness was rubbing against my skin for w little. one of the other instructors also offered me a ginger shot candy to help with my post dive. this is review is all over the place but the guy who checked us in was also rlly great! we were on a slight time crunch bc we had to be back for a graduation and he got us in earlier than we were quoted :) def recommend skydive hawaii!

    My instructor and I post jump.

    Ask the Community - Skydive Hawaii

    Do they allow you to bring your own GoPro (strapped to your wrist)?

    No they do not.

    What is the little white parachute connected by a string to the tandem instructor and why is it activated during freefall?

    The little white parachute is called a drogue parachute. It slows the tandem pair down to approximately 120mph.

    Should I get the video or the photos?

    I actually bought both and found it well worth the price. I'm very much into photos for memories, so those are great to have, but the video captures more emotion and is well done.… Read more

    I've been walking through a pretty unbelievable difficult journey. However, through this painful…read morejourney I've decided to keep living and am focused on checking off my bucket list! Life is a journey. How you choose to live yours is up to you. Do some activities carry risks? Yes. However, in my opinion you risk your life every day if/when you get inside a vehicle and travel anywhere. That's why it's so important to stay close to the Lord! Where ever you are on the island will be a beautiful drive to Durham airfield. There is plenty of room for parking, but still get there early enough you can be relaxed. When you book your reservation, Heidi is pretty thorough on when you need to arrive and what to expect when you get there. I love heights. Always have. As far back as I can remember, I dreamed of being a pilot and also jumping out of a plane. I just didn't realize it would take a dark journey for me to make at least one of these dreams a reality. In 2018 , I discovered North Shore Oahu was one of the top 10 places to skydive in the world. Score ~ booked and jumped! Then in 2021 I discovered hang gliding was also available just a hop skip and a jump down from Skydiving Hawaii on Durham Airfield. It wasn't much of a conversation with myself that morning when I decided to book both hang gliding and my 2nd skydiving jump over the North Shore in the same day. I know, right?! It was epic! Tom and Heidi were amazing. Not only did I enjoy my conversation with each of them, but I enjoyed my 45+ minute flight with Tom. Spectacular views of the island I love. Tom explained how the glider worked. He also allowed me the experience of holding the wings as we flew. Flying free feels like sitting on the back of a motorcycle which I also enjoy doing and still do. The pictures show the beauty below, but they don't share the exhilaration of sitting in the seat flying high! The saddest part was coming back down to reality. Thanks Tom for an amazing memory and one I would and will repeat in a heartbeat!! All rules, and chances of mishaps are reviewed with each and every applicant. This sort of activity is not for everyone, however, each applicant signs a paper indicating their understanding of the risk. It's always incredibly sad to hear when accidents happen. My heart goes out to anyone who has lost a loved one who is choosing to experience an activity such as hang gliding. Accidents happen. In the short amount of time I spent with Tom and Heidi never once did I feel they would purposely jeopardize anyone's life while they share their love of hang gliding.

Our whole family got a turn, and it ended up being the favorite activity for our two high school kids! The team was fantastic--they took the time to explain everything clearly, so we all felt confident and comfortable before taking off. It didn't feel rushed at all; in fact, it felt like we each got our own private flying lesson, which made the experience even more special. While we waited for our turns, we could watch the flights from the waiting room, which added to the fun and anticipation. It was a smooth, exciting, and thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish. We would absolutely recommend this to our friends and family--such a unique and memorable way to see Hawaii!

    Adding the Shark Dive to our trip right before heading to the island was the best decision we made…read more This was the most incredible experience I have ever experienced. We arrived a little more than 30 minutes prior to our charter time, unfortunately the captain missed us at check in and we joined a later charter which worked out really well for us. Captain Ken was our boat captain and he was very kind & knowledgeable, he provided us alot of information prior to us taking off and while we were out on the water. He also had floating camera handles he allowed us to use - thanks Ken - we didn't even think about this. The First Mate & crew on our charter were great and very informative. It was whale season in Hawaii while we were there so we were able to see sprays from the whales on the trip out to the shark encounter area. We were able to see whales breaching the water in the distance, we also saw alot of sharks. The charter takes us 3 miles off shore & then hooks up to the shark cages that are tethered out in the open water while charters go to and from. It is about a 20 minute boat ride out to the shark cages & 20 minutes back. Each group gets so spend roughly 20 minutes in the shark cage, getting up close and personal with these majestic creatures. Captain Ken took some video footage from a pole camera and we were able to be in the background in the cage, the video provided by the captain was clear and a great perspective. I am so glad that we added this to our trip because this was hands down one of the coolest experiences of my life! I would definitely do this again, on our next trip to Hawaii.
