Skydive Wild Geese

The centre is situated near the glorious North Coast of Northern Ireland. With such fantastic scenery on hand, why not take a bird’s eye view by experiencing the thrill and excitement of a parachute jump?

Founded in 1983, it is by far one of the best equipped centres within the British Parachute Association (B.P.A.). The Sky Centre, which is open to the public, has full catering facilities, TV’s, video/DVD players and a pool table. As a result it was the first centre to be awarded a Certificate Of Merit for Excellence by the B.P.A.

A full time operation, the centre itself is open seven days a week, all year round (some closures during the holiday periods). Office hours are 10am to 5.00pm (week days). There are no restrictions on jump times and height, jump dawn to dusk if you wish at weekends; mid-week by prior arrangement. And courses take place every Saturday and Sunday (mid-week if numbers justify).

There is a purpose built hangar that houses our aircraft: a Cessna Caravan and a Cessna 206. It also holds the indoor training facilities: briefing room, fan trainers, suspended harnesses, a carpeted packing area, creeper area with 8 creepers, and a visitors’ viewing area.

In addition to these features, the centre has a Parachute Display Team which is available to jump into your event.

The centre has bunk house accommodation for those who wish to stay overnight, just bring a sleeping bag and there are hot showers. There is ample parking for you, your family and friends, who are more than welcome to watch you train and do your first jump or your one thousandth jump.

If you are a jumper from another centre and have no kit of your own, do not worry, as we have club kit for hire, for both student parachutist and experienced alike. We have also hosted the British National Open Parachutes Championships in three disciplines and the All-Ireland Skydiving Competitions.
