Beach Skydives Around the World: 15 to Book

33 jumps  ·  from $66 a head

Landing on sand costs more than landing in a paddock, because the drop zone has to be somewhere people want to be. These 15 finish on the beach or a reef island, with the water under you the whole way down, priced and clear about how far the walk to the bar is.
