Skydive Dubai

Skydive Dubai offers tandem jumps from 13,000 feet over two stunning drop zones: The Palm Drop Zone, which provides breathtaking views of the Palm Jumeirah, the Arabian Gulf, and the Dubai skyline, and the Desert Campus, which features vast golden dunes. The experience begins with a brief training session, then you board a turbine aircraft for a scenic ascent. As you step to the door, the view stretches from the Burj Al Arab to the World Islands. The freefall lasts about 60 seconds, reaching speeds of up to 120 mph, followed by a peaceful parachute ride of 5–7 minutes. Professional instructors handle all the technical aspects, so even first-timers can enjoy the thrill. The facility at Dubai Marina is modern and well-organized, with a café and viewing deck where friends and family can watch landings. Skydive Dubai is known for its stringent safety standards and has hosted world-class skydiving competitions.

Know before you go

• Arrive at least 30 minutes before your scheduled jump time for check-in and paperwork.
• Wear comfortable, fitted clothing and closed-toe shoes. Avoid loose items that could fly off.
• Eat a light meal beforehand, don't jump on an empty stomach, but avoid heavy food.

A bit of history

Skydive Dubai was established in 2010 as part of the Dubai government's initiative to promote extreme sports tourism. It quickly gained international recognition for its iconic Palm drop zone and has since become a bucket-list activity for visitors from around the world.
