Magnum Helicopters - Doors Off
Your Doors Off Oahu helicopter tour begins with a beautiful view of
Keehi Lagoon and continues over historic Honolulu Harbor. Enjoy great
aerial views of Aloha Tower and the business center highrises. Then fly
over Ala Moana Beach Park, Magic Island and Waikiki Beach. This part is
fun because you'll also see the surfers and pleasure craft off Waikiki.
Next up is Diamond Head, Kahala and spectacular Hanauma Bay.
Rounding the southeast end of the island, you'll see rugged
coastline, inviting Sandy Beach and Makapuu Point and lighthouse. Your
aerial tour continues over Sea Life Park and miles of white sand beach
in Waimanalo. You’ll be treated to stunning views of Mount Olomana,
Kailua, Kaneohe and the gorgeous coral formations of Kaneohe Bay. Keep
an eye out for Coconut Island, which was used for the opening shot of
the TV classic Gilligan's Island, and the serene waters of the Kaneohe
Bay fishpond, initially constructed by the ancient Hawaiians.
Then one of the most dramatic vistas awaits you, storied Jurassic
Park (Kaaawa) valley, where scenes from a dozen major motion pictures
have been filmed. Perhaps the highlight of the tour is the remote Sacred
Falls, a delicate and splendid 1,000-foot cascade, which can only be
seen from the air.
The tour continues along Oahu's North Shore, with a million-dollar
view of world-renowned surfing spots including Sunset Beach, Pipeline
and Waimea Bay. On your way over the island's central plain, you’ll see
the Dole pineapple maze and the "birthing stones" of Hawaiian royalty.
Your Oahu helicopter tour concludes with an all-encompassing view of
Pearl Harbor, the Arizona Memorial and the Battleship Missouri.
