Why Canberra?
For the first time jumper, Canberra is the ideal Australian City for skydiving and
there is no place better to see it than from the air. The radiating lines of Walter Burley Griffin's original city plan are only
unveiled fully from above. Canberra skydivers are rewarded with a variety of spectacular
views all year round - the distant snow capped mountains of the Australian Alps in winter,
the carpet of rich warm colours of autumn, the blossoms and city wide floriade in spring
and the warm balmy days of Canberra's very pleasant summers.
The weather is great for jumping all year round and there's
acres of space to land in - just look at all the green areas in the aerial photo!
All jumps are made within airspace fully monitored by Air Traffic Control, so there's no
chance of interference from other aircraft when you jump.
We don't do commercial skydiving any more. However, during our years of operation in Canberra, we worked very closely with the team at Aerial Skydiving. You can contact them for more detailed information, though general features are listed here.
