Where do I check in for the skydive?

Check-in and the safety briefing take place at Donnington Airpark; final meeting point and time are provided after you confirm your booking with Hyundai Travel.

Are instructors certified?

Yes — jumps are conducted with instructors who meet Australian Parachute Federation standards, and all tandem equipment is checked before flight.

How long does the whole experience take?

Plan for roughly 3–4 hours including arrival, briefing, aircraft ascent and the jump cycle; exact timing depends on manifest order and weather.

Is there an age or weight limit?

Age and weight restrictions vary by operator; Hyundai Travel or the onsite operator will confirm limits when you book — always check before arrival.

Can I bring my phone or camera?

Personal devices are typically not allowed during freefall for safety; operators usually offer professional photo/video packages you can purchase.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Operations can be delayed or canceled for safety. If your jump is postponed, the operator will reschedule when conditions improve or advise on refunds per their policy.

14,000-Foot Tandem Skydiving Over Townsville — Donnington Airpark Freefall

On a clear morning above Townsville, the ground opens into a patchwork of coastline, sugarcane and reef, and then you step out. 타운즈빌 14,000피트 스카이다이빙 어드벤처 launches from Donnington Airpark in Woodstock, Queensland, Australia, offering a tandem skydive from 14,000 feet that pairs raw adrenaline with panoramic views of the Coral Sea and Magnetic Island.

The jump begins at Donnington Airpark, where Hyundai Travel handles bookings and local jump crews run the operation. After a concise safety briefing and gear check led by Australian Parachute Federation–certified instructors, you climb through blue that deepens as the aircraft climbs. At 14,000 feet the world flattens: coastline, rivers, farmland and the pale curve of reef sit in a single frame. The freefall accelerates past 200 km/h, a sustained, furious minute that recalibrates how you measure speed and silence. When the canopy opens the descent shifts into a slow, held glide—time to take in visible anchors like Magnetic Island, Cleveland Bay and the mosaic of sugar fields and estuaries below.

This is not just a stunt; it’s a landscape-focused flight. The geology here features coastal lowlands of weathered sandstone and tropical savanna, and on clear days you can pick out coral formations that hint at the Great Barrier Reef’s edge. Birdlife—brahminy kites, egrets—picks at thermals below. Local crews will orient you to landing patterns and the strip at Donnington, giving a grounded end to the rush.

Practical details matter: group sizes cap at 22, English-speaking guides are standard, and every jump is operated under the oversight of certified instructors. Hyundai Travel is the booking intermediary; the actual skydive is delivered by the onsite operator at Donnington Airpark. Expect a full briefing, equipment fit and a short wait while the aircraft cycles. Weather can cancel or delay jumps; be flexible and plan a backup day.

Why book this with a visit to Townsville? Few activities let you pair a serious adrenaline hit with a wider appreciation of northern Queensland’s coastal geography. It’s a compact, repeatable adventure that suits first-time jumpers in good health and anyone chasing a stopwatch-free, high-altitude perspective. You leave with a certificate, sharper nerves, and a story that makes the approach drive through Woodstock feel like part of the trip.

If you go, arrive with ID, comfortable clothes, sun protection and an appetite to trade gravity for a fresh view of Australia’s northeastern coastline. Plan to reserve in advance, as flights and manifests fill quickly on fine days; operators commonly advise arriving early to complete paperwork and waiver forms. Ask about optional photo or video packages and bring a small, secure camera only if permitted. Confirm any age, weight and health restrictions with Hyundai Travel or the onsite operator before booking today.
