nelsonsd 0 #1 March 19, 2004 I may be moving to Pensacola, FL. Does anyone know of a good dropzone in that area? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChileRelleno 0 #2 March 19, 2004 You have three DZ's in the area, but in my highly biased opinion there is only one real choice. Goldcoast Skydivers in Moss Point, MS http://www.goldcoastskydivers.com. Goldcoast would be about a 1.5hr or less drive, but it is just about the friendliest DZ I've been to out of over 70 DZ's visited so far, plus its home. Best aircraft and facilities IMO.

mcrocker 0 #3 March 20, 2004 It is also home of the Pink Mafia, some of the prettiest sky chickas on the planet. I go to Pensacola to visit the in-laws once a year, Maybe I should drive over to the Gold Coast sometime. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spaceman26068 0 #4 April 10, 2004 Emerald Coast is where it's at!!!!!!!!! Beach jumps whenever you want and a staff that's great. Not to mention it's so close to Pensacola...-- Only 20 minutes away! Call if you need directions 1-800-SKYDIVE in the 850/251 area code or 251-986-5618 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saturn27 0 #5 April 10, 2004 I'd have to agree with Spaceman, although I am also slightly biased since I have not jumped at Gold Coast. I am from Ohio and was visiting a friend, and I went to Emerald Coast and couldn't have felt more welcome! The beach jumps are amazing!!! Definitely check it out!

napaguy99 0 #6 April 10, 2004 Emerald Coast is the pimp daddy of Pensacola DZs. Closest to P-cola and super friendly jumpers. It's my home DZ now so feel free to shoot me a PM if you have any questions about it. The beach jumps are beyond spectacular. You will love it here. "Let the misinterpretation and attacks begin."

wingnut 0 #7 April 10, 2004 i jumped at emerald coast for 6 months backin 2002 and it was great.. very nice friendly place.. took a coule weekends to get to know everyone and learn thier names but it was great..... coolest thing was being ablwe to jump into the florabama and drink and eat crawfish and hang out......most awsome jump was a 6 way sunset jump over the gulf.. just made a bfr and held it.. very cool........ the beer than night and craming 13 skydivers into a van was fun...... didn't help that i had to pee about the whole way back to the dz and tha's an 20-30 minute ride....(10 miles as the otter flew though) ______________________________________ "i have no reader's digest version" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
