About Skydive the Grand Canyon

Paragon Skydive, which trades as Skydive the Grand Canyon, opened at the South Rim in 2016 and runs a tandem-only operation from the main terminal of the Grand Canyon National Park Airport at 3551 Airport Road. Jumps go from 16,000 feet and pair the skydive with a scenic flight over the canyon, with optional photos and video. Jumpers must be over 18 with photo ID, and the company says to plan for about half a day. It is open 364 days a year, from early morning to sunset.
