The staff are great from admin, pilot, to dive guys! My twin sister and I went for our 40th Bday. We affectionately named our guys Redbull and Mellow Yellow. Made us relaxed and just were super. Only reason not 5 star is the portolet is only toilet and work out of a trailer.

Excellent experience! Felt safe in the hands of very capable and assuring guides… and did I mention safe?

My family and I took my mom on her 50th to skydive. It was her big birthday wish. We all went out to support her, but were very frustrated with the nearly 2 hour delay at this facility. They were evidentally behind in their schedule — though no one provided a reason why — and we were stuck just waiting for hours before it was my mom’s turn to jump. Another family was also waiting and eventually just got their money back . When my mom finally jumped, the wind was apparently wrong and caused her and the professional she jumped with to land on the beach(Fernandina Beach) over a mile away from the landing site we had been waiting at. Granted the wind isn’t something controllable by anyone, not even the instructors, but we were even more disappointed that for the hours we had been waiting to see her land, we never even got to. A van went to pick her and the instructor up and drove them back to the site we were at. Overall, not a great experience for us as spectators and everyone, including my mom, was very disappointed in the terribly long delay. We felt they should have informed us this could happen(the delay, not the wind issue) so we could have planned to do something else in the several hours we were just sitting there.

I’m very lucky that I married a man that accepts my quirk for what it is: pure, unadulterated crazy. One of my bucket list items has been to go skydiving & I am now officially able to cross it off my list. My husband came to me and said he had found what he wanted to give me for my birthday. One catch: he wasn’t going to tell me what it was. All I knew was to wear comfortable shoes(not flip flops) and that I had to be ready to leave the house at 8AM on a Sunday. Not excited about this adventure so far. After driving for an hour through parts of Jacksonville I’ve never seen before, we arrived to a little airfield. After figuring out where he needed to go I noticed a small sign for Skydive Amelia Island & immediately knew what I was going to be doing. After meeting Darren & having a brief intro(no two hour class here) I was ready to get on the plane. After a short climb to 10,000 feet it was time for me to jump. The best line of the day was when Darren would signal me it was time to jump by screaming. Uhhhh… ooookkkk. But by the time I registered he was screaming, we were out of the plane & I was experiencing the best rush of my life. I’m not jumping to do it again anytime soon, but I would jump if the opportunity presented itself. Pun intended.
