Skydiving Durham


Our Skydiving Durham experiences let you go for that big leap! This small and friendly skydive centre just 10 miles from Durham is a fabulous place to make your first free-fall tandem jump into the blue. Based at Shotton Airfield on the Shotton Colliery site on the edge of Peterlee this is actually the only skydiving school in the whole of the north east. It's also been noted as one of the best-equipped small airfields in the north. So as you can imagine this centre attracts hundreds of budding skydivers from the Durham area and beyond to have a go at throwing themselves out of a plane. On arrival at the base you'll be met by the skydive team and introduced to the instructors before tackling your first challenge of the day: the Documentation Orientation and Training programme. The next hour and a half is spent being taught all the basics you need to know to be safe in the air; from learning what to expect once you're in the plane and how to exit the aircraft to the position to adopt during free fall and how to land safely. You will then be taken up in the school's Grand Caravan aircraft. You and your fellow jumpers will be feeling the anticipation kick in almost as fast as you climb to a dizying 10 000ft. With your harness on you'll be attached to your tandem instructor and before you know it you're on the ledge of the aircraft looking down over the patchwork Durham countryside ready to go skydiving! Subject to weather skydiving at Durham is scheduled on midweek and weekend/bank holiday dates from mid-February to the third weekend in November. The vast majority of tandem skydivers get to train and jump on the same day here at Durham. Worth noting is that fact that this Durham skydive school offers free overnight camping and caravanning on the airfield!
