Reviews

Thank you for an amazing time to celebrate my son’s 18th Birthday ! There were 6 of us in the group. The instructors were great, it was a perfect day to jump out of the plane and the view was breathtaking. Our group had a ton of fun and are still talking about it a month later. Hope to do it again!”

“On October 24, 2020, I had the greatest experience ever 13,500 feet up with the “gorgeous, blue eyed Taylor” who made sure I felt safe and had fun every skydiving moment. I would 100% do it all over again. Thank you for the memory and cheers to you Tim McGraw!” – Priscilla B.

“When my Mother In Law told me that she’d sadly probably never knock “skydiving” off her bucket list— my husband and I immediately set her up to have the experience of a lifetime at Skydive Suffolk! As a pilot myself, I know and trust the aviators who fly these airplanes. Experience, knowledge, safety and absolute enjoyment is the name of the game here. These are people you can trust your life to; the most highly trained and experienced skydivers in the country. Steve L. went tandem jumping with my MIL— he is amazing, if you can pick your guy, you won’t regret having him jump with you. Steve is not only passionate and extremely knowledgeable about skydving, but also a consummate professional, energetic, upbeat positive guy who can calm any nerves and stick the most solid landing and flight profile. Let me tell ya, watching your MIL come floating to the earth with a grin from ear to ear is *PRICELESS*!!! Thanks Skydive Suffolk and thanks Steve, for making the seemingly impossible, an amazing reality!”

– Kathleen C.

“Professional organization. Very organized. Large enough to handle big groups in an orderly and timely fashion. Expert instructors. Friendly staff. Aaron R, a 25 year army airborne vet was my instructor. What a pro and a fun person. Had a blast! Several aircraft in their inventory. If you want a superior skydiving experience and instruction, this is the place.”
