Forget hang-gliding and paragliding – there’s nothing like the rush of jumping from a plane at 12,000ft. Just about anyone can tandem skydive, but sky surfing, wingsuit surfing and BASE jumping are best left to pros.
Where to try it: choose an idyllic natural setting like Byron Bay, Australia (try Skydive Australia), the Swiss Alps (try Skydive Switzerland) or Key West, Florida (try Skydive Key West).
