# Skydive Las Vegas – Tandem Skydiving in Boulder City, Nevada
For over 30 years, Skydive Las Vegas has established itself as a trusted name in tandem skydiving, delivering safe, first-time-friendly experiences with certified instructors and stunning desert views. Located in Boulder City near the Las Vegas Strip, the dropzone operates from Boulder City Municipal Airport (BVU) and offers tandem jumps from 12,500 feet with no experience required.
