Skydiving is popular in many countries. I will list some countries that have skydiving and make some comment about the type of skydiving offered.

I think it is a fair bet to say that if a country has a military, it probably has at least military skydiving.

New Zealand has military and sport jumping. The views are spectacular with the beautiful Bay of Islands in the North with ocean and island scenery, to the lakes and mountains of Queenstown and Glenorchy in the South.

Australia has military and sports skydiving with spectacular views of coral reefs from the air to barren desert.

Fiji has sports jumping to my knowledge with the emphasis on tandem. Skydiving is very big in the US and probably has the most jumping. Not so big in the United Kingdom with the weather issues but still is on offer. France Germany Spain, (very popular) Italy Hungary Russia, there is probably not many countries in Europe that don't have some skydiving.

The United Arab Emirates are mad on skydiving and with the financial backing available have been able to finance world record formation jumps successfully.

To be frank, perhaps it would be easier to list countries that don't have skydiving. People have even jumped at the North Pole and above Everest.

I would welcome comment on this. Perhaps your country hasn't been mentioned and you are a jumper.

Skydiving is popular in many countries around the world. It is an expensive sport, but despite this, 3rd world countries still often have large numbers of skydivers.

Some facts:

  • Germany has the largest number of dropzones in comparison to its population.
  • The UK has the largest national championships in comparison to its jumping population.
  • The USA has the largest number of sport parachutists.

Everyone would say their own country is the best. It really depends on what scenery you want to see.
