About Skydive East Coast
# Skydive East Coast
Skydive East Coast operates from Eagles Nest Airport in West Creek, New Jersey, positioned just 21 miles south of Atlantic City and offering quick access from Philadelphia via the AC Expressway. The dropzone operates seven days a week from March through November, with designated camping areas, rigging service, Wi-Fi, parking, and internet available for visiting jumpers.
What distinguishes Skydive East Coast is its New Jersey coastal location and the aerial views it delivers. The site emphasizes "best views, best locations, best customer service and the best instructors," specifically highlighting the ability to see "the incredible coastline in NEW JERSEY" during jumps. This coastal scenery defines the skydiving experience here in a way that sets it apart from inland alternatives in the region.
The dropzone operates a Cessna 182, noted on the USPA group member locator. It serves tandem skydivers, student AFF training programs, and experienced jumpers seeking fun jumps. The facility markets itself as a destination for those wanting to experience the aerial landscape of the Jersey coast from a unique vantage point—literally from the sky.
Located at 100 Airport Road, West Creek, just off Garden State Parkway exit 58, Skydive East Coast is conveniently positioned for jumpers from the New York and Philadelphia metro areas. It's only 20 minutes from Atlantic City and 10 minutes from Long Island via the AC Expressway, making it accessible for weekend trips and drop-in visits. The dropzone's seasonal March-through-November schedule aligns with optimal jumping weather on the East Coast.
For those seeking tandem skydiving experiences, Skydive East Coast emphasizes stepping outside your comfort zone and pushing personal boundaries with an experience "you'll remember forever." The dropzone invites visitors to book online and promises the combination of quality instruction, safety, and coastal scenery that defines jumping in New Jersey.
