A 50-minute drive north along the N7, is all it takes for you to be whisked from the Cape Town city centre to the skydiving drop zone in South Africa’s tourism capital, boasting one of the best views in the world from altitude.
On the way up in the aircraft to your tandem skydive, the view is breathtaking. To the south, the city bowl lies sandwiched between towering Table Mountain and bustling Table Bay harbour. Further south, and to the far side of the mountain, lies False Bay, Hout Bay and the splendour of the south peninsula as far as Cape Point. To the west, you will spot Robben Island and the Atlantic Ocean breaking on the beautiful Cape West Coast, as famous for its icy water temperature as it’s mouth-watering crayfish. To the north, the Langebaan lagoon, a great kitesurfing and windsurfing venue.
Skydiving is the one item that features on almost every bucket list. At Skydive Cape Town, our dedicated staff and internationally qualified tandem masters are on hand to make your skydiving dream a reality. There’s no better way to experience Cape Town than in freefall. Go on – take the plunge!

Skydive Cape Town
An Unforgettable Experience -- 5 Stars! I recently had the opportunity to do a tandem skydive with Skydive Cape Town, and it was truly an incredible experience. From start to finish, the team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, clear communication, and a genuine commitment to safety. They reached out the day before to confirm everything after checking the weather---something I really appreciated, as it showed how organized and attentive they are. Their pick-up and drop-off service was both punctual and convenient, and our driver made the 40-minute commute feel like part of the adventure with his friendly and engaging conversation. Once we arrived, the staff made sure we were well-informed on safety procedures and answered all questions in a calm and confident manner. There was also a small snack shack on site, which was a great touch for a quick coffee or refreshment. I jumped with Ti-Izak, who was absolutely outstanding. He made the entire experience fun, engaging, and exciting, all while ensuring I felt completely safe every step of the way. To top it off, they had a professionally edited 6-minute video of my jump ready for me just moments after landing---an awesome way to relive the moment and share it with friends and family. I can't say enough good things about this team and the entire experience. If you're considering skydiving in Cape Town, this is the place to do it. Highly recommended! - Eric
Sky diving for the first time was one of the most thrilling and exhilarating experiences of my life. From start to finish, everything was incredibly well-organized and professional. The team made me feel safe, comfortable, and fully prepared for what was about to happen. The initial free fall was pure adrenaline, like flying without wings. Beaven was awesome, can't wait for round two! - Mary
