See Sydney from the air aboard a historic Sydney seaplane. From Harbord Bridge to Bondi Beach, you can enjoy spectacular views of the harbor city on your scenic 15-minute seaplane flight. What better way to get your bearings in Sydney?
Your flight takes off and lands in Rose Bay on Sydney Harbour, eight kilometers from Sydney city centre. You'll be amazed by the view of Sydney Harbor unfolding below you as you soar through the air in a seaplane, a nice nostalgic touch that contrasts with Australia's high-tech world.
Your scenic flight takes you along the sea port, where you can admire the stunning sandstone cliffs rising abruptly from the water. You will then be able to fly over the famous Bondi Beach, where your pilot will maneuver the plane so that all on board have an unobstructed view.
