It takes a certain type of person to be able to jump out of a plane and freefall at over 100 miles per hour. But it takes an even braver person to seek out the most extreme skydiving locations in the world. If you’re one of these thrill seekers, it may be time to plan a trip and experience it for yourself. These five skydiving destinations will show you what living on the edge feels like.

1. Skydive Hawaii — Waialua, Hawaii, U.S.

This Hawaiian skydiving center gives you the option to drop from 12,000, 14,000 or 20,000 feet at over 120 miles per hour. The view of the ocean and gorgeous mountains make the trip down so worth it.

New Zealand has been called the adventure capital of the world, and it’s the place to go if you’re ready to do something wild. It’s no wonder Fox Glacier made this list, since you can skydive over the scenic Tasman Sea, as well as massive glaciers and crystal blue lakes.

3. Skydive Dubai — Dubai, United Arab Emirates

From a bird’s eye view, Dubai is a sight for sore eyes. The man-made Palm Drop Zone is the most popular area to drop from, as well as to fly over from high above. The company suggests booking your jump two to three months in advance. You’re guaranteed to get the photo op of a lifetime if you have the guts to jump.

4. Everest Skydive — Mount Everest, Nepal

At 23,000 feet, you can jump into the open air around snow-capped peaks. Because flying over Everest can have risks, you have to shell out a whopping $20,000 for a tandem jump, or $18,000 for a solo jump. You have to trek for 11 days to reach the base where you board the plane. It’s a lot of work, but we bet the view was worth it.

5. Skydive Empuriabrava — Empuriabrava, Spain

Flying over the lush Spanish coast is incredible enough, but opt for the sunset dive and you’re guaranteed an even more amazing experience. You start at 13,000 feet above ground and after you’ve descended, you’re taken for a complimentary plane ride around Empuriabrava.
