about the SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
Skydive Golden Gate is located at the Marin County Airport in Novato, California, only 24 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge. That makes Skydive Golden Gate the closest skydive center to San Francisco. We are the only skydive within 25 miles of San Francisco. In fact, all other Bay Area skydiving is more than 60 miles away from San Francisco.
From our vantage point two miles above San Francisco's North Bay, our instructors will point out views of the San Francisco city skyline, the San Francisco Bay, Pacific Ocean, Golden Gate Bridge, Napa Valley and Sonoma wine country, the Farallon Islands, Angel Island and Alcatraz. On a clear day, views carry out all the way to the snow-capped Sierra Nevada mountains. You won't find these spectacular views with any other skydive in Northern California.
Once you've completed your skydive, enjoy the area by visiting a winery or two in nearby Sonoma or Napa, take a drive along the Pacific Coast Highway, or take a hike through Muir Woods. We're happy to recommend great nearby activities!
