Awesome experience!

I missed my dive slot due to my own mistake, but Skydive Mt Cook were very accommodating and managed to give me another slot. The whole experience was smooth and professional. The views are phenomenal. Definitely recommend!

Mindblowing

Great experience. The team kindly accommodated us on the next day after our original session was cancelled due to poor weather. Instructors were super qualified and gave us peace of mind. The views around mt cook and the lakes are fantastic

Check it off your bucket list!

I've always wanted to go skydiving but wanted to do it somewhere pretty. This definitely checked all the boxes! Our first time slot was delayed because of weather, but they worked with us to find a time that would work for everyone. Check in was smooth, easy, safety briefing was informative but not too long. My instructor was friendly, knowledgeable, and kept me safe. Would highly recommend!
