Non-for-profit skydive club (2nd oldest in Spain) with offices at San Agustin air strip and DZ at Maspalomas sand dunes. Club has shuttle bus for skydivers. Marvelous scenery and great easy-going atmosphere. Offers skydives for € 29 with Caravan that seats 14. It also works tandem skydives to finance club operating costs, done by experienced club members who are also AFF instructors (some USPA). Rigging services available. Since its location is right smack in the middle of beach tourist area, you have a sheer endless choice of accomodation, dining, car rental and leisure & nightlife activity. Since opening hours vary, I strongly recommend calling before showing up. You will really want to have jumped here, enjoying the sight of the island's mountains, the sand dunes, the sea and the nearby island of Tenerife. Breath-taking!

I have made almost all of my 160 jumps (incl. AFF course here). Used to be a great place with skyidiver vibe and excellent facilities, accesibility and dz layout that welcomed everyone. Now, only one Pilatus, and clear priority on AFF students and tandems. Substantiation: After bad experience many previous sat/sundays (at least 10), I called at 12:00 noon and asked if skydivers had a chance today or if I should drive there later/tommorow. They pretended my question was unsubstatiated and asked me to come ASAP. Arrived 12:50 and paid. Went to manifest and was told booked on load 13 when load 10 was leaving. Was told later I had time for lunch because they needed to move me to load 14. Had lunch. Ended up moved to load 15 which got in the air at 16:45h. Landed and was manifested on load 18. Packers had priority on tandem and student gear. Could not make load 18 and gave up! Left at 17:45h with one jump and lots of frustration....
