16,000ft Skydive Auckland | Skydive Auckland | Shaara Deals
A 16,000ft tandem skydive with Skydive Auckland from Parakai, 60 seconds of freefall, on Shaara Deals from $445.
Sitting between the entry-level and highest jumps, this 16,000ft skydive with Skydive Auckland gives a longer freefall than the 13,000ft option while staying below the top-tier price point.
The scenic flight up takes 20 minutes and covers both the east and west coasts of New Zealand, along with views of Great Barrier Island, Waiheke Island and Mt Ruapehu. From 16,000ft, freefall lasts up to 60 seconds, travelling at 200km/h, before your instructor opens the parachute for the glide back down to Parakai.
As with the other jump heights, the day starts with a full briefing covering what jumping from high altitude actually involves, followed by being paired with your instructor and geared up before boarding. Personalised camera packages are available as a separate purchase, capturing the ground briefing, the scenic flight, your exit from the plane, the freefall (including any hand-written message), and the parachute ride down to landing.
Skydive Auckland runs a 17-seat plane, which makes this a straightforward option for group bookings if you're jumping with family, friends or colleagues.
