The best way to soak in the endless golden beaches, striking skyline and lush hinterland views of the Gold Coast is a scenic helicopter tour. Buckle up and lift off from Sea World for an exciting ride that will have you soaring over the buzzing Broadwater, Sea World, South Stradbroke Island and Northern Beaches.

Passengers will have the option to choose between a short but sweet 5 minute flight over Sea World or opt for an extended, 10,15 or 20 minute flight option to travel South visiting Surfers Paradise with an extraordinary view of the city’s towering high rises including the iconic Q1 and Jewel residences.

Flights conveniently depart from heliport adjacent to the Sea World theme park entrance and cruise terminal making it a great activity to add on to a day at the theme parks or a Gold Coast whale watching cruise.

Our kids enjoyed the trip, had a great time. Staff are friendly, professional and informative. Super nice view and great weather too. We came a bit earlier than scheduled time, luckily we could get on board right away. No additional waiting time. We chose 10 min ride, tour 2, which is just perfect timing for us.
It was an excellent journey for our family. Great view, friendly staff and professional crew team.

Bird-eye views

Bird-eye views. It was amazing. The staff were very helpful. It was very challenging to get the booking made as the flight will go ahead with a minimum of 5 people. Overall they managed to book. It was our 1st time and we enjoyed every bit of it. Definitely recommend it.

Went on a 10 min ride with my partner

Went on a 10 min ride with my partner, was exciting being on a helicopter for the first time but wasn’t that great and the quiet ride didn’t add much to the experience. An interactive experience with the pilot would have been better and longer flights would probably make it enjoyable.

Great service at affordable price

Great service at affordable price. Friendly and very helpful staff. Nice flight. Also, the pilot has really good commanding over instructions. Safety is the main concern at this ride. My son enjoyed a lot we had truly a thrilling experience. 10/10! Will go again for the long flight next time. Thanks to Experience Oz.

Great fun

Great fun. Son who had never been in a helicopter before had a blast. Great views and very friendly staff and pilot. Felt safe throughout the whole flight, helicopters were comfortable and very spacious. We arrived early and were put on the flight straight away.

Awesome experience for the whole family

Awesome experience for the whole family! The attendants & the pilot were so friendly. We all really enjoyed the wonderful views of the Gold Coast, from a different perspective. Not the cheapest activity, but certainly worth the expense for the looks on their faces! Something they will remember for a long time to come.

Best Helicopter experience ever

Best Helicopter experience ever. Gold Coast 5 minutes Scenic Helicopter flight is one of the rare experience anybody can have! The views of the Gold Coast is amazing and spectacular. Just beside the beach whole Gold Coast City looks like an expensive treasure which can’t be explained in words. My whole family has enjoyed the trip and amazing views we have enjoyed. Especially the spectacular views of the Gold Coast city and Surfers Paradise was marvellous. I highly recommend everyone who visits Gold Coast should try the 5 minutes Scenic Helicopter flight as it is such an experience which is unforgettable and unique and it will leave a lovely memory in your heart forever. I highly recommend Experience Oz as well for giving the best price and service. Thanks to Experience Oz for making our trip cost-effective and charming.

We took the scenic flight over at Sea World and had a flight around the area

We took the scenic flight over at Sea World and had a flight around the area. Although it was only a 5 minute flight, I would say it is totally worth the value! The scenery was fabulous and the pilot was quite experienced. I find it too expensive at first for a 5 minute flight, but I totally did not regret paying the amount.

It was a very memorable experience for me and my family

It was a very memorable experience for me and my family. Its something you can cherish and talk about it till you get old. The workers were very nice and accommodating especially with our 2 year old. They have given her some earphones to protect her ears. They have provided lockers for our things which I think is great as you wouldn't be worried about your bags or get caught while trying to get on and off the helicopter. Probably the downside of it is that this is a famous Gold Coast tourist activity so when we got there, there were a lot of people getting ushered around. Tour guides shouting to get them organized as some of them can't speak English. So it felt like a market place. Best to do it during off season or if it doesn't bother you.

Went on the flight in the middle of the day

Went on the flight in the middle of the day, the weather was beautiful which meant we had awesome views. Because of weight distribution, we were seated in the two front seats with the pilot (which was really cool) and he was very friendly. Riding in a helicopter was such a cool feeling and flying over the beautiful Gold Coast was just the icing on the cake. I would highly recommend this flight!
