About Skydive Zion
Skydive Zion is the local drop zone for the St. George area, operating from Hurricane Municipal Airport at 800 West 2300 South in Hurricane — perfectly positioned between St. George and Zion National Park. Jumpers exit over one of the most dramatic patches of the Southwest, with views across the red cliffs of Zion, Sand Hollow's blue reservoir and the Pine Valley Mountains.
The core offering is the tandem skydive: first-timers are harnessed to an experienced instructor, briefed on the ground, then flown up for freefall and a canopy ride back to the desert floor — no prior experience required. Beyond first jumps, the drop zone supports licensed sport jumpers with regular lifts, and operates seven days a week with morning slots prized for calm air and long views. Photo and video packages capture the whole jump.
The setting is the differentiator: few drop zones anywhere pair freefall with a national-park panorama, and the small-operation format means personal attention rather than a conveyor-belt experience. For visitors working through a Southern Utah adventure list, this is the item that turns the scenery from a backdrop into the whole point.
