Amazing staff and experience I attended here alone for a tandem skydive. Although an early start (weekend) it did ensure there were no delays. Safety brief was clear and concise. Apart from the weather delaying the jump (warmer months are guaranteed) the overall experience once we were cleared to go was amazing. My instructor (Chris) was brilliant, really made me feel relaxed and talked me through it from start to finish. For someone scared of heights and not keen on flying, based on the way Chris and the rest of the team conduct themselves I would definitely jump again.There is also a decent canteen on site.

Thrill seeking, buzzing, absolutely amazing. Honestly the best experience of my life. Staff were absolutely amazing and reassuring the whole time could not recommend enough...

Amazing. Incredible experience. Dived with Glen who was excellent. From start to finish everything felt perfectly safe and professional and every member of staff I spoke to had substantial skydiving knowledge will 100% be returning. Thanks.

Absolutely amazing experience! Had an absolutely amazing experience here!I did my first skydive (a 10,000 ft jump) on my birthday, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! The entire team was incredibly warm and welcoming. I was quite nervous when I first arrived, but as soon as I spoke to them, they made me feel completely at home — they turned my anxiety into pure excitement!A huge shoutout to Emma and Dave, who helped calm my nerves right away, and to Glen, my instructor — he was absolutely fantastic! He kept me involved throughout the skydive and made sure I was comfortable and enjoying every moment. Alex, my photographer, was equally amazing — I’d asked him for a fist-bump shot before the jump, and he made sure to capture it perfectly!I arrived around 7:30 a.m. to avoid delays. Although the weather was a bit uncertain at first, the team handled everything brilliantly. As soon as conditions improved, they quickly arranged everything so we could all jump before it changed again.Honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday experience — the team went above and beyond to make it unforgettable.Highly recommend this place to anyone looking to skydive in the UK!

Free fall from 15000 feet Brilliant service and staff Leigh the instructors was superb as was Laurence the cameraman they went out of their way to make us relax and happy going back next spring for another one

Amazing way to spend my 25th Birthday!! Best day ever! 🤩🪂 What a way to spend your 25th birthday? It's long been a dream of mine and one to tick off the bucket list. From booking to the actual day, everything has been handled in a professional and friendly manner. On the day the training was comprehensive and interesting. And then once we were airborne it was just amazing. My instructor was Chris Beattie and he made me feel at ease from start to finish. The feeling leaving the plane was exhilarating, free falling is indescribable and the parachute descent was so calm, controlled and even relaxing. Yes it was cold going through the clouds but the weather was perfect and the views were wonderful. I would definitely recommend North London Skydiving to anyone. I went for the 15,000ft jump as you are in the air for longer. I also purchased the video and photo package as these could be once in a lifetime memories if this is your only jump. For me I think I have the bug so would 100% do it again. Thanks Chris and everyone at Chatteris Airfield and North London Skydiving 🪂🤩

Amazing experience! What an great experience! Highly recommend, all staff were friendly and reassuring which made for an amazing bucket list day with family!

IF YOU’RE THINKING ABOUT IT – JUST DO IT!! YIKES, it was almost Halloween, but there was nothing spooky about my skydive with Leigh at North London Skydive Centre.I had a fantastic jump – Leigh was kind, reassuring, fun, and knowledgeable. I felt exhilarated and utterly safe, and that’s an experience worth having. The best part for me was tipping and turning out of the plane, followed by a minute of exhilarating freefall. Once the parachute opened, the fun continued with Leigh letting me take control – under his watchful supervision, of course!Thank you, Leigh – you are an absolute diamond and gave me a fabulous jump.The whole vibe at the centre is one of experience and expertise, coupled with genuinely welcoming, fun people. My new motto to carry with me: “Be more North London Skydive Centre.”Huge thank you to everyone – what a find, and what a special place this is 😊

What a way to start the day. I have done skydiving in a wind tunnel - it was a great laugh - But the real thing beats it hands down. This was my second time with them, it was so much more fun, and it was thanks to winning their ''win a skydive'' draw after the first skydive. They are a well practiced, organized and experienced team. It was reassuring to watch the them check each others kit, so although I was a little anxious this time, I knew I was in safe hands. The drop out of the plane was exhilarating - just don't open your mouth or your whole face flaps and wobbles about like a bloodhound's with its head out the car window. Not a pretty sight.
