About this experience
Skydive Mission beach offers an unforgettable experience, blending the exhilaration of freefall with breathtaking views of the Great Barrier Reef, the sandy shores of Mission Beach, and World Heritage-listed lush rainforests surrounding the area. Feel the thrill of freefall from up to 15,000 ft above ground, all under the guidance of a seasoned professional.
Why you'll love it
A backdrop unlike any other drop zone
Ranked among the top 10 places to skydive in the world, Mission Beach puts the Great Barrier Reef, tropical rainforest, and coastline directly beneath you.
Pure freefall from 15,000 feet
Reach altitudes of up to 15,000 ft for an extended freefall that gives you time to actually feel — and see — the rush.
Jump with a certified professional
Your instructor manages every stage of the dive, so first-timers can focus entirely on the experience rather than the mechanics.
Scenery worth every second
The canopy descent is as memorable as the freefall — a slow, sweeping glide over one of Australia's most photogenic stretches of coastline.
Cairns transfer option included
A round-trip transfer from Cairns is available, removing the hassle of organising transport to and from the drop zone yourself.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need any skydiving experience to take part?
None at all. This is a tandem jump — you're harnessed to a fully certified instructor who controls the entire dive from exit to landing.
What happens if the weather is bad on my booking day?
Skydiving is weather-dependent. The operator may cancel or reschedule at short notice if conditions aren't safe. In that case, you won't be charged for something that didn't happen — check the cancellation policy for full details.
Is there a weight or height limit?
The minimum weight is 30 kg and minimum height is 1.2 m. Participants weighing 95 kg or more are subject to assessment at the drop zone, and a weight surcharge may apply on the day.
Can under-18s take part?
Participants under 18 require written parental or guardian consent, and children under 6 cannot join. All younger participants are also subject to assessment by the instructor on the day.
I have a medical condition — can I still jump?
Anyone with mobility issues, recent injuries or surgeries, epilepsy, or heart conditions will be assessed at the drop zone before jumping. Contact the operator in advance if you're unsure.
What's the difference between the two ticket options?
The standard ticket covers your tandem skydive at Mission Beach. The second option adds a round-trip transfer from Cairns, which is useful if you're based there and don't want to drive.
