Thank You Since 1979, SWOOP’s “State of the Art” Skydiving Environment has defined Quality & Professionalism as a not-for-profit, member run club. We are the closest dropzone to GTA with an awesome view of Hamilton and the Harbour, Lake Ontario, the Toronto Skyline, and the CN Tower. Sometimes on a clear day, you can even see Pennsylvania across Lake Erie! As a non-profit, member-run club, we are smaller and have a tighter sense of community than larger, commercial dropzones. We average over 3,000 skydives annually. • Website :- https://www.skydiveswoop.ca/ • Contact no:- 1-800-463-5867 • Address:- 461 ON-5 West, Dundas, ON L9H 5E2
