Skydiving in Micronesia

[sangiro 26]

Heya all,
I'm thinking of getting out of town for a couple of weeks.... sun, scuba and of course skydiving. Has anyone ever jumped in Micronesia...or heard about someone jumping there?

hey sangiro,
i jump in saipan in northern marianas (micronesia).
there is a tandem operation here ,and in guam, jumping from bandierantes,unfortunately we don't cater to fun jumpers.
the landing areas are too small ,and we get very severe turbulence during the trade wind season.
there are no other dz's in micronesia.the good news is the diving is great,we dive all year,no wetsuits and 100ft plus visibility.palau is probably the best dive spot in micronesia,but there is also the mantas in yap,and the wrecks at chuuk (truk).
the philipines are very close ,and is excellent,very cheap diving and living,(and i mean LIVING).take no notice of the news it's a very safe place,with beautiful people.
if you want more info or contacts in the area ,email me.

I haven't sky dived in Micronesia; however, I can vouch for the incredible scuba diving in Chuuk. If you're into wrecks, this is a absolute must.
If you do find a good spot to jump it would be good to know. I'll definately be back, and this time with a skydiving licence!
