Scenic Joy Flights

 

What better way to spend the morning or afternoon than experiencing the beauty of our natural attractions by flying in one of our helicopters.

Let Compass Helicopters whisk you away on a private adventure. Based at Coolangatta Airport, we have at our finger tips, some of the most spectacular hinterland and coastlines in Australia.
We can take a family of four in our Jet Ranger for a picnic, or just pamper yourself on a coastal cruise, but remember…Bring the camera!

Choose from one of our specialty tours, or create one for yourself. Some of our tours include the following:

 

  • Orbit around Mount Warning. At close to 4000 feet it is the first landfall in Australia to catch the sun each morning. From this extinct volcano, you can see the massive crater which spans over 20 kilometers in diameter. You will then fly past historic Murwillumbah and the Tweed River.

Tour distance - 75 kilometers. Tour time - 35 Minutes.
From $190 p.p.*

  • The Gold Coast Beaches. Take a low level buzz over the "most beautiful beaches in Australia". Taking you north from Coolangatta, you will fly over Burleigh Heads, famous Surfers Paradise, Sea World and Stradbroke Island.

Tour distance - 54 kilometers. Tour time - 24 Minutes.
From $149 p.p.*

  • The Gold Coast Hinterland. Departing Coolangatta, fly west over the Currumbin Valley towards Hinze Dam. With Beechmont to your right, you'll follow the Nerang River upstream winding through the Springbrook Valley in between the rugged terrain of the Gold Coast hinterland.

Tour distance - 76 kilometers. Tour time - 35 Minutes.
From $190 p.p.*

  • Cook Island. Flying at 500 feet over the coast, you'll see the old shipwreck at Kirra Beach on our way to Point Danger, the border of Queensland and New South Wales. From Cook Island we'll fly you over the mouth of the Tweed River, which winds its way from the crater of Mount Warning. On this tour, you may even get a bird's eye view of a large passenger jet landing or taking off, or a pod of dolphins playing in the surf!

Tour distance - 17 kilometers. Tour time - 10 Minutes.
From $69 p.p.*

  • Cape Byron. As an extension form our Cook Island tour, you'll also get to see the gorgeous beaches of northern New South Wales as we fly over Kingscliff Beach and Hastings Point on the way to Australia's most eastern point, the rocky Cape Byron.

Tour distance - 124 kilometers. Tour time - 48 Minutes.
From $265 p.p.*
