Daring to confront the most formidable forces of nature, standing at the front line of the battle, witnessing the universe's most tragic and majestic drama unfold before your eyes - this is the "sport of the brave."


The struggle between man and nature, the battle between man and god as sung in the Greek epics, is extremely thrilling and challenging.


Skydiving, once less popular, is now on many people's bucket lists. Jumping from a height of 15,000 feet, experiencing 60 seconds of free fall, and soaring through the air for four to five minutes after the parachute deploys, not only provides an exhilarating rush but also offers a breathtakingly beautiful view from above.


If you're looking to try this exciting sport, we will introduce some of the best skydiving resorts to you next.


1. Dubai, UAE


The Dubai Skydive Zone is one of the most beautiful skydiving spots in the world. Here, you can see Dubai's most famous sights, including the artificially reclaimed Palm Island, the Sailing Hotel, and the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.


2. Queenstown, New Zealand


Extreme sports enthusiasts will not want to miss New Zealand's reputation for extreme sports. Jumping from a plane at 15,000 feet offers a great view of Mt. Excelsior, a famous ski resort in New Zealand, as well as New Zealand's third-largest lake, the deep blue Lake Wakatipu.


3. Barcelona, Spain


Located 40 miles northeast of Barcelona, between the Mediterranean Sea and the Pyrenees, the Empuria Brava skydiving area offers breathtaking views of both. It is considered one of the top skydiving sites in Europe, where first-time skydivers often try their hand at skydiving alongside the world's best skydivers.


4. Great Barrier Reef, Australia


The Cairns Skydive Zone offers Australia's highest tandem skydive (14,000 feet), providing a panoramic view of the Great Barrier Reef and the Queensland Rainforest region, two of the world's heritage sites. For an additional fee, you can even operate your own parachute, but this requires a professional qualification.


5. Hawaii, USA


Hawaii, known as "the most beautiful island in the ocean" by Mark Twain, has always been a tourist paradise. The Drop Zone on Oahu, Hawaii, is one of the most beautiful places in the world for skydiving. Jumping from 15,000 feet, you can experience 60 seconds of free fall and 4 to 5 minutes of soaring through the air with the parachute open, overlooking the beautiful natural scenery of Hawaii, including winding rugged mountains and emerald green coral coastlines.


6. Swiss Alps


The Lauterbrunnen Skydiving Area is surrounded by snow-capped Alps, waterfalls, glacial lakes, and lush green fields, making it a place where you can forget all about the mundane within 60 seconds of jumping off. It is one of the few skydiving sites in the world where tandem jumpers are transported to high altitudes by helicopter.


7. Victoria Falls, Zambia


Victoria Falls is one of the largest waterfalls in the world, and skydiving beneath it at an altitude of about 6,000 feet above is an unforgettable experience. For extreme sports fans, the beautiful and danger-filled fall of Victoria Falls will undoubtedly bring endless thrills.


8. Diani Beach, Kenya


Located about an hour south of Mombasa on the beach, this skydiving area provides a view of the coral reef and, on a clear day, the Himba Hills National Reserve in the distance. The beauty of the blue-green waters washing over this long, thin strip of huge sandy beach is breathtaking. The best part is that every November, the beach hosts the Phuket Festival, where you can skydive for as little as $100.
