Get ready for the ultimate one-hour joyride over the awe-inspiring Heart Reef, while your pilot provides insider knowledge on history and features of the Great Barrier Reef. With some of the world's most stunning places so close together, this flight offers you aerial views like no other. From your window seat, you will witness nature's masterpiece at full scale, with endless photo opportunities as you capture beauty on land and sea around the Whitsunday Islands.

Your seasoned pilot will glide past Long Island, Hayman Island, and the world-famous Whitehaven Beach, with its iconic sand beaches and turquoise bays at Hill Inlet. Get blown away by the magnificent mosaic of blues and greens, unravelling the gorgeous Heart Reef alongside Hardy and Hook Reef. Gaze into the distance as you spot a wide variety of marine life. Resident manta rays, green turtles, dugongs and sharks will cross your way, with a bit of luck, during peak season, even the occasional whale. Expert commentary from the pilot will ensure you don't miss any show-stoppers, as long as you have your camera ready! Go on this adventure to see nature's beauty from a different perspective.
