Just completed my AFF at this drop zone, the people are awesome, Dan and Leslie are both encouraging and supportive, couldn't ask for a better vibe whilst learning. the pilot is also a champ,can't rave enough about my introduction to this wonderful support :) THankyou Kalbarri Skydive! I recommend to all to check this little diamond of WA out.
blue skies!

I spent just over 2 months in New Zealand and visited many of the dropzones. I must say that Abel Tasman has not forgotten what 'fun jumping' is. Most other dz's balk at sportys because our ticket price is not good enough to even consider the financial loss that may occur if they allowed us on a load. Heck some even just jack up the price to $75-$100 for sportys in which case WE have to consider the financial loss.
NOT Abel Tasmen. they were a breath of fresh air. From the first time we set foot on the dz we were treated with hospitality. Not only was the entire staff friendly, but the even wanted to jump with us! Even they're students were cool ;) They also have some kitchen facilities and front porch seating for your typical skydiver shootin the s&*t downtime.. and the after jumping social time ;)
The views are great, mountains and ocean all around. Weather was always nice. Fletcher is quick and seats 10. Hands down best dz in NZ.
