On this Waikiki sunset helicopter tour, you'll soar over the city skyline glowing in warm evening light and circle Diamond Head as long shadows stretch from its peak. Pass above the sandy shores and volcanic cliffs of Hanauma Bay, watching the Makapuu Lighthouse beam red toward the sea. Along the scenic Windward Coast, evening light paints beaches, sandbars, and the distant Ko'olau Mountains. From ocean to rainforest, the majestic Ka'a'awa Valley unfolds, offering close views of Sacred Falls cascading into lush greenery. Glide above surfers at Banzai Pipeline and Waimea Bay, then over the "Pineapple Sea" at Dole Plantation. As sunset approaches, complete a solemn pass over the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. Finally, witness the fading sun set the sky ablaze with hues of pink, orange, and red, silhouetting the city skyline in a spectacular farewell to the day.
  • Oahu, HI
    Oahu is the most popular of the Hawaiian Islands. It is the location of Honolulu, Hawaii's capital, as well as much-loved tourist spots like Pearl Harbor and Waikiki. The Polynesian Cultural Center is on this island as well.
  • Diamond Head
    Rising over Honolulu, Diamond Head is a dormant volcano with an interior crater. The Diamond Head crater is one of the world's best examples of this geological formation. The crater's interior is now a national park.
  • Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve
    Both a bathing beach and a nature preserve, the Hanauma Bay area is one of Oahu's most popular tourist spots. While actually touching the local animals is illegal, you can still get closer to them than almost anywhere else!
    Opening Hours: Closed on Tuesdays
  • Makapu'u Point Lookout
    Located at the extreme eastern edge of the island of Oahu, this lookout provides incredible views of the Pacific Ocean. It is famous for the lighthouse that sits above the water. The name means "bulging eye" in Hawaiian.
  • Ko'olau Mountains
    Formed by a prehistoric volcano, this mountain range on the island of Oahu is a perfect location for hikers and mountain-climbers who find themselves in the area. The peaks at the top provide incredible views of the Pacific Ocean.
  • Sacred Falls
    Sacred Falls is a secluded waterfall in Oahu's windward coast gorge. Closed to hiking since 1999 due to rockfall hazards, it is now only viewable by helicopter tours.
  • Dole Plantation
    Dole Plantation opened in 1950, billing itself as "Hawaii's Pineapple Experience." In addition to touring the fields, visitors can attempt the "world's largest maze," a 3-acre adventure with more than two miles of paths and a mystery to solve.
  • Pearl Harbor, HI
    Pearl Harbor is a lagoon harbor on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, west of Honolulu. Much of the harbor and surrounding lands is a United States Navy deep-water naval base. It is also the headquarters of the United States Pacific Fleet.
  • USS Arizona Memorial
    This memorial in Honolulu, Hawaii serves as a remembrance of the American soldier killed in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. The ship marks the resting place of over one thousand of the dead.

Additional Notes

Dress comfortably, like you would for any outdoor activity in Hawaii. However, if you choose a doors-off tour, your flight will be windy and cold so jackets and/or sweatshirts are required and long pants are recommended. Closed toed shoes are also required for doors-off tours. Hats are often not allowed on board your flight. Lastly, for anyone with long hair - a hair tie is recommended.
