Coral Cay Bubbles

PRIVATE SCENIC HELICOPTER TOUR

Your own perfect piece of tropical paradise. Nestled in the blue waters of the Coral Sea, capture those Instagram moments on your own private Sand Cay. Make this the highlight of your visit to the Great Barrier Reef – add an amazing element to your inner reef scenic tour and include a 30-minute stop on breathtaking Vlasoff Cay. Departing from Cairns, relax, soak up the scenery and float out across the Great Barrier Reef with your pilot guide showing you the best views. Once you touch down, get your feet wet - the sand between your toes and enjoy a glass of bubbles on this unique slice of paradise. There seriously is no better way to truly experience the best of Far North Queensland!
 
A landing at Vlasoff Sand Cay is not always possible. It is a public area and we can only land when it is unoccupied and when the tides permit a safe landing. If we can’t land, we’ll fly-on to discover the beauty of the Outer Reef. With bubbles in hand, this extended custom tour ticks all the boxes. Intricate reef details become vast panoramas as we climb to 3,000 feet, with everything captured on your free in-flight video. Your pilot will discuss this and other options before your flight lifts.
