Rainbow Helicopters - Royal Crown of Oahu
This is Rainbow Helicopters most complete Oahu helicopter tour. You’ll get to see all the island’s top sights in one hour. Departing from the Honolulu International Airport, your adventure begins with expansive views of the Waikiki skyline. Look up to new heights, and you’ll see Diamond Head’s tiara, sometimes jeweled with rainbows, reigning over the south shore.
Continuing on, you’ll pass Hanauma Bay, Oahu’s prime snorkeling spot. Then glide over the charming Makapu'u lighthouse overlooking the island’s southeastern tip. The tour then continues north up along the windward coast, and you’ll see the Ko'olau Mountain Range, as well as Lanikai Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in all of Hawaii.
Offshore, sandbars and coral formations make Kaneohe Bay one of the most picturesque places. Passing Chinaman’s Hat Island, the majestic Ka'a'awa Valley unfolds before you. As the mountains approach, you’ll pull in close to see the impressive streams of Sacred Falls tumble into the lush rainforest below.
On Oahu’s North Shore, enjoy spectacular views of world-famous big wave surfing beaches, including Banzai Pipeline, Sunset Beach and Waimea Bay. Heading inland, you’ll fly over the Dole Pineapple Plantation and then last but not least, Pearl Harbor.
Doors Off Option: Rainbow Helicopters gives you the choice if you would like to fly with doors on or doors off. You can select your flight preference at time of booking. With the doors off option, you get to experience the sights with an open cabin and enjoy unobstructed views.
