Eagles' Skydive Sri Lanka is one of two skydive operations on the island and is unique in being run by the Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF). The dropzone operates from SLAF Station Koggala in the Southern Province, about an hour by road from Galle, with views over Koggala Lake and the surrounding coastline. Every instructor is a SLAF officer who's also USPA-certified, each carrying 1,500+ jumps. The military airfield setting means full air-traffic control and a long, hard runway — uncommon for tandem operations elsewhere in the region. Two package tiers structure the offering. Silver is a 10,000 ft tandem with a one-minute edited video, stills, and a certificate. Gold lifts the exit altitude to 13,500 ft and extends the video to two minutes. Aircraft rotate between a Y-12, Cessna, and helicopters depending on availability and group size. The operation is two years into commercial running but built on decades of SLAF skydiving experience — sport tandem is an extension of an established military programme. The right jump for travellers staying on the south coast (Mirissa, Unawatuna, Galle) and for anyone who prefers a working military airfield over a private commercial DZ. Skydive Sri Lanka in Bentota covers the west coast for Colombo-anchored visitors — together they cover both circuits of the island. Pricing runs LKR 90,000 for Silver and LKR 105,000 for Gold, payable in rupees — which matters for travellers carrying local currency on the southern circuit. Jump mornings pair naturally with Galle Fort or a whale-watching run out of Mirissa.

Cancellation & policies.
Cancellations and date changes are arranged directly with the dropzone — message them anytime, and SiA steps in if needed.
Skydiving is weather-dependent. If the dropzone can't fly safely they'll reschedule you at no charge — or arrange a full refund if a new date doesn't suit.
Approved refunds are returned to your original payment method, typically within 5–10 business days. The dropzone confirms the timing.
After booking you’ll be in direct contact with the dropzone — any change or refund is arranged with them. SiA’s team is here if you need us.
Eight real anxieties, addressed.
Tandem operators set their own weight limit (commonly around 90–115 kg) and confirm borderline cases on the day — check the exact limit with this dropzone when you enquire. AFF students have no upper limit but must fit the rig comfortably.

Hasitha Mudalige★★★★★a year agoAn Unforgettable Adventure! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the incredible opportunity to do a tandem skydive with Eagles Skydiving, and it was an experience of a lifetime! From start to finish, the team was exceptionally professional, ensuring safety and comfort at every step. The pre-jump briefing was thorough, with the instructors taking their time to explain everything clearly, which helped calm my nerves. Once in the air, the breathtaking views of Horana and the surrounding landscapes were truly awe-inspiring. The feeling of freefall is indescribable – a perfect mix of thrill and exhilaration! Special thanks to my instructor Wing Commander Ritigala, who was not only highly skilled but also made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. The landing was smooth, and the post-jump celebration added a nice personal touch. I highly recommend Eagles Skydiving to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure in Sri Lanka. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned skydiver, this is an experience not to be missed. Make sure to book early as they’re in high demand, especially on weekends!
Airfield gate — operator shares the exact pin and driving directions in the inquiry reply. Koggala is the customer-facing hub.
Most jumpers drive or use Grab/Bolt. Free on-site parking. Plan a 2-hour buffer before your manifest slot for traffic + check-in.
Block 3–4 hours on site for tandem (briefing + climb + jump + canopy). AFF students should plan a full day.
