Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE)
Bucket List Experience
One for adrenalin junkies, Skydive Dubai offers skydives over two sites in Dubai: the famous Palm (the Palm drop zone) or Dubai’s nearby desert dunes, 35km from the city (the Desert drop zone).
You’ll jump from 13,000 feet and reach speeds of up to 120 mph, with 60 seconds of freefall. If you can relax enough to enjoy the views, they’re spectacular.
Tandem skydives are the quickest and easiest way to go, requiring no training. Generally, anyone over 18 can go, subject to suitable health and fitness.
Tandem skydives are offered all year round, seven days a week.

Destination guide
A desert city playground with a unique combination of Arabian culture, mega-malls and audacious architecture in a setting of year-round sun, sand and sea. Great family hotels and a ridiculous number of family attractions too.
