Now that's what I call progression... What an amazing, experience, I haven't stopped smiling yet. With 240 jumps already under my belt finding the time and weather to get the necessary briefs and assessments done in the UK was proving tricky. Skydive Spain's B license progression course seemed like the answer, and I can not thank the instructors and staff enough. Nothing was too much trouble. Right from the initial stages of booking the course, through to goodbyes at the end of the week, everyone, without exception, was friendly, attentive and professional. The combination of first class instructors, and great facilities and friendly staff made for very easy learning. JM1 and CH2 to packing, rig inspections, and spotting, the briefs were well planned and informative. The added bonus of the most amazing FF instructor was the icing on the cake for me. Anyone having done their AFF looking for more knowledge, or working towards their B license, this is the course, and the DZ for you. 10/10 Skydive Spain (the smile factory) keep up the good work. I'll certainly be back.

Skydive Spain is so professionally well run (It is of course the sister DZ to Hibalstow in UK)
Nothing is too much trouble for the staff.
Fast aircraft and an exit at 15,000 or above!
Would recommend to anyone who wants to visit a really top DZ!

I learnt to skydive here in December 2010 under Pete and then Mishka. This place is nice and it looks as if they mean to be proud of their DZ as everything is tidy and kept in top notch condition.

There are lots of instructors who are never too busy to give you advice if you need it.

There is plenty of equipment for dirt dives creepers, a movable arch table other places don't have.

They have three large screens to debrief you and tell you of your mistakes or areas needed for improvement. A very large packing area as well as reasonably proced jump tickets. The lifts are continuous throughout the day where 20-30 a day is a slow day.

The only bad point is that the PLA is rather small with one side completely off limits. It also baked rock solid at times with a large ditch running around it making the PLA even smaller. Off landings can result in a very very long walk back due to the high fence all around the drop zone unlike other places.

But overall a very enjoyable and pleasant drop zone which is well run.

This was the second time I visited Skydive Spain and am fully satisfied with the trip again!
I traveled with a group from Sweden that has now been there 4 years in a row and the reason we always go back there is because of the great service from the staff, it is never any problems cause they help out with everything you need. The planes they use are really nice, fast and ok comfortable. The huge exit gives big formations an easy start.
Every load is well planned and you can tell that they know what they are doing.
Weatherbrakes accurred several times but they manage to time in the spots to send up a lift or two in between the bad weather, its really impressive.

The only negative thing I can point out is the café/bar this year. Last year when we were there I think it was managed by the dropzone staff and then it was good food for decent money and good feeling of the bar. This year the owner of the airfield run the café instead and the service was awful, a kid that don´t understand English and takes 15-20 min to make a sandwich is not ok.

But overall a good place to skydive, and I am looking forward to the next visit.

I have now visited Skydive Spain on a number of occasions having learned the sport in Florida and jumped at a number of sites in the UK. Skydive Spain is the one I keep going back to. All the staff without exception are friendly and add to the experience of being a fun jumper. The only downsides are the road to the airfield but this can add to the daily experience each day as you navigate your way round potholes, cyclists and olive pickers!! The toilets at the airfield are the only real drawback with the overall facilities and the cafe is run by the airfield not by skydive Spain, other than that the facilities at Skydive Spain and the hanger are superb. Everything has a place and it appears all staff take pride in keeping it like this, this is also evident in the plane. it gives you a lot of confidence that if you are going to use any of their kit it is going to be well looked after and maintained. the team at Skydive Spain have an attitude of how can I make things better and this is evident as every trip you notice improvements, from the layout of manifest to storage shelves for your kit, things are taken for granted at Skydive Spain that other dropzones don't even consider.

I have no hesitation in recommending this dropzone to my friends and to anyone who wants to learn to jump as I know they will get looked after and enjoy the experience, and if they do loose some time to weather holds then were better than to end up in 'Bollullos' the uniquely Spanish nearest village enjoying a Solomillo al Whisky in the bizarre Hotel Gadafi or having a drink in the triangle as local life goes on.

A big thank you to all the team at Skydive Spain for making each of our trips enjoyable.

Alistair
