This place is awesome, I felt very safe. The instructors really want you to have the time of your life. They were right on time getting up and jumping. I will definitely be going back until the money runs out.

This is a great mom and pop dropzone. Amazing views, amazing people. I had 3 cousins who wanted to do tandems, so I called this dropzone up and asked them if they would let me come along on the jumps. They had reservations over the phone (as I would expect any good dropzone to) so I went down to meet everyone. After talking to the DZO and tandem masters, and explaining my experience (150 jumps and a coach rating), they agreed to let me come along and it was great. They had 2 tandem instructors who were both the nicest and coolest people you've ever met. The DZO was great too. The only con I could possibly think of is that they only have cessnas (which isn't even really a con). However, they get to altitude about as fast as an otter, and the views on the way up are awesome. I didn't get a chance to do the beach jumps, so I'll definitely be back! ABSOLUTELY recommend!

This was my first skydive and start of my AFF using a tandem progression. I was reluctant at first wanting to do non-tandem instruction. Laura (my instructor) was excellent in explaining the differences. She was very professional and very experienced not to mention HOT! I would recommend her and Skydive Coastal Carolinas to anyone! Even though the plane looked shotty, it ran fine and did the job.

As a newly C licensed skydiver I just had to jump the beach! So I sent a few pushy emails to this dropzone and headed down with four jumpers and two observers! After 5 hours of driving we showed up not knowing a soul! We were immediately greeted with smiles and open arms. We were given a place to sleep, plenty of space on the plane, and invited to dinner! The jumps were fantastic, the staff was great, and I can not say enough about the hospitality!

Nice, open landing area! And the beach jumps.....AMAZING! Do not pass up this dz! This is one we will visit again but this time bring the camper and stay a week!

This most likely would have got a 5 rating for fast rigging and great people, but I was EXTREMELY disappointed that I was not made aware of a 3 jumper minimum before getting on the aircraft. I was only told I needed to pay for my instructors ticket...which was fine with me. What I was not told was when I was paying, was that my first jump was 75 dollars for me, the instructor and an EMPTY SEAT.

The turbo 182 got to altitude quick, view was great and staff were down to earth. Just watch for the "3" jumper minimum.
