The Experience: Get sand between your toes on the shore of the Maroochy River, where you and your child will meet the crew. After a short briefing, you'll get your feet wet and we'll get you settled in the aircraft. We explain all the fun facts about seaplanes and what to expect. The Pilot will personally answer all their questions and they get to talk with him over the intercom and have a first-hand experience of what it is like to fly in a seaplane. Every seat is a window seat and this aircraft was designed as an observation plane, so be prepared for amazing views.
We taxi and take off from the waterway, and on this particular adventure flight, you fly to the Maroochy River mouth for a brilliant perspective of the beaches north and south, Mudjimba Island and the distant Glass House Mountains, before a smooth turn and return to base and a touchdown into the wind on the Maroochy River... as smooth as silk.
You then taxi back to the beach and we take photos for show-and-tell later!
