11. Colorado River, Costa Rica
Though it is mainly a hot spot for hobby anglers, the Colorado River, or the Rio Colorado, in Costa Rica, features the Colorado River Bridge, which is a great bungee jumping site at 279 feet. The company Tropical Bungee works from this bridge and offers jumpers a variety of options, including an all-day pass. This way you get the most out of your bungee jumping experience no matter your skill-level, and they pay special attention to the safety of all jumpers. The river it spans goes 265 feet deep, and this jump is one of the tallest in the Americas.
12. Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge, Queenstown, New Zealand
Queenstown is a mecca for bungee jumpers for a reason and another great location to test those latent bird skills is at the Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge spanning the Kawarau River in the Otago Region. Just over 141 feet high, this is a great jump for those testing the waters, or if you want to get experimental with somersaults and flips as you’re airborne. Famous for being the world’s first bungee jump location, it’s worth checking out to observe others even if you’re not prepared to jump yourself.
13. Navajo Bridges, USA
Across the Colorado River and the Grand Canyon, there is a 467-foot bridge spanning these natural works of art, known as the Navajo Bridge of Marble Canyon. September is a perfect time for jumpers to take their leaps, as the scenery, mixed with the incredible visions of autumn and its rich colors, contribute to unforgettable bungee jumping experiences.
