There are few things in life that’ll get your heart pumping out of your chest quite like skydiving. While jumping out of a plane over a mountain vista is great and all, the best skydiving is actually done over the desert. It’s the best way to take in the sweeping sandy landscape in one epic fall.
Ground Rush Adventures
One of the best places to skydive overseas is in Namibia. Swakopmund is a veritable oasis with sandy shores stretching for miles against a crystal-blue swatch of water. It’s the perfect spot to drop with lightning speed from the sky.
Skydive Arizona
Skydive Arizona offers trips in the middle of the Sonoran Desert halfway between Tucson and Phoenix. The landscape isn’t exactly the barren landscape you might expect from a desert, but that only makes the views more scenic.
Skydive Dubai
The manmade Palm Jumeirah Island next to the city of Dubai makes for a striking sight when falling above it at 120 mph. The coastline is mesmerizing thanks to the juxtaposition of the ocean coming up against the desert and it’s one of the best skydiving opportunities in the world.
