If time is of the essence, or seasickness plagues you, then there is no better way to see the reef and rainforests of Tropical North Queensland than from the air on a thrilling helicopter flight.
Helicopter Flights in the region encompass options such as scenic flights, combined flight & reef cruise packages, secluded sandy cay or rainforest dining tours, private charters and transfers to/from the Cairns Airport to Port Douglas.
Scenic flights range between 30 & 45-minute tours. You will truly appreciate the beauty of the region from such a high altitude. Experience the exhilaration of flying over the canopy of the World Heritage Rainforest, then as the green changes to the vivid blues of water, you are flying over one of the great wonders of the world – The Great Barrier Reef.
Combine a scenic flight out to the reef, meeting your return cruise vessel at an outer reef pontoon for the ultimate Great Barrier Reef Experience. This tour option offers a later departure than your standard reef tour, and allows you to enjoy all the comforts of a Great Barrier Reef Cruise, without all the travel time involved. While on the pontoon passengers are able to snorkel, take a semi-submersible tour for a different view of the reef and experience a fabulous buffet lunch!
Choose between fly/cruise, cruise/fly or fly both ways. All options make for an unforgettable experience.
Indulge in the fantasy of a lifetime and fly to your own secluded paradise in the middle of the Coral Sea for a picnic with a difference. Passengers can spend approximately 3 hours on their own isolated sand cay island to enjoy some luxurious necessities such as chilled champagne, a sumptuous picnic lunch to order and shelter from the topical sun. Snorkel or simply lay on the beach to enjoy the peace & beauty of your surroundings before flying back to reality!
Other tour packages include Breakfast with the Birds at the Rainforest Habitat combined with a fly/cruise tour, breakfast at an outback billabong or fly & dine in the Rainforest or Cairns City.
Helicopter Charters are a unique service and involves a full day hire of a private aircraft and pilot who will take you where you want to go. Charter flights allow passengers to create their own itinerary, or transfer to & from Cairns airport in style. Heli companies can suggest flexible itineraries to make the most of your day.
What a fabulous way to begin your stay in Port Douglas by taking a 20 minute scenic flight from Cairns Airport to the Port Douglas Heli-pad, where a limousine will be waiting to transfer you to your holiday destination of choice.
Whichever Heli option you go for, be it a scenic flight or airport transfer, you can be assured that safety is top priority and you will be in for the ride of your life!
