Incredible experience

Published on Jan, 2025

It was truly amazing! Seeing the coastline from above with all the color variations was beautiful! We saw at least 10 whales and their calves I was in awe! The pilot was great at helping us learn how to look for the whales. The pilot pointed out points of interest, and answered all of our questions! He was so knowledgeable and informative, a pleasure to listen to. Our minds were blown by the incredible experience! Knowing what I know now, I may have left the doors on lol! We enjoyed our selves so very much!

Spectacular bucket list item.

Forget a drone, see the views yourself!

The manager Kalei is nothing short of an Angel. She is truly amazing and worked with everything we asked for. The pilot, Donovan is as well legendary. An amazing and skilled pilot, as well very knowledgeable and personable. You are going to enjoy every minute of your flight with him. We will be back within some time, and will be looking forward to seeing both Donovan and Kalei again. -Brandon & Isira

Gorgeous views!

TY to our pilot Turner, for an amazing flight. He provided historical info, and gave great insight on the local area. We immediately took his suggestion for a snorkeling site and it did not disappoint!
