Sydney Scenic Flight by Seaplane

Sydney, Australia

See Sydney from the air aboard a historic Sydney Seaplane. From the Harbour Bridge to Bondi Beach, you'll enjoy spectacular views of the Harbor City on your 15-minute scenic flight by seaplane. What better way to get your bearings in Sydney?

Your flight takes off and lands at Rose Bay on Sydney Harbour, eight kilometers from the Sydney city center. You'll be awed as Sydney Harbour unfolds beneath you as you soar into the air in your immaculately restored seaplane, a welcome touch of nostalgia in contrast to high-tech Sydney.

Your scenic flight takes you along the harbor to the sea, where you will marvel at the stunning sandstone cliffs rising abruptly from the water. You'll then fly to world-famous Bondi Beach, where your pilot will maneuver the aircraft so that all on board have great views of the scores of surfers waiting for the next big wave.

From Bondi you'll head back to the harbor to climb to 1,000 feet for a truly stunning view of Sydney. You'll complete a circuit above the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House, for unforgettable photo opportunities of the two famous icons.

On your descent back to Rose Bay your pilot will point out the beautiful houses of the rich and famous that punctuate the waterfront, before gently splashing back down to earth.

You then have the option of combining your Sydney Scenic Flight by Seaplane with lunch.You will travel from Rose Bay by water taxi to the famous Doyles on the Beach restaurant at Watsons Bay. Sit back and enjoy a lunch of the finest and freshest Australian seafood surrounded by stunning harbor views.

After lunch, why not take a short stroll to the neighboring beach, lighthouse and scenic vantage points. To return to Circular Quay or Rose Bay, you have the option of traveling by bus, ferry or taxi at your own expense.

It has for years been my ambition to have a flight in a seaplane, and you couldn't pick a better venue than Sydney Harbour. The weather was brilliant and the whole experience lived up to my expectations.

Super trip with a very good inflight commentary by our pilot Adam. The whole family thoroughly enjoyed it. The age of the plane adds to the feeling of adventure as does the way you watch the pilot adjust the controls as you fly. One of the fastest 15 minutes of my life!

A 100% must. It's a great way to see the beaches and the harbor and all the pilots were very friendly.

We booked the seaplane flight from the UK, as an alternative to the bridge walk and oh my, aren't we glad we did. The take off and landing are worth the trip cost, without the benefits of fabulous views of the bridge, opera house, harbour and beaches and if your lucky, like we were whales leaping below us. Thanks pilot forgotten your name, but have your photo. One of the main highlights of our 26 day trip around Oz.
