Oahu 60-Minute Helicopter Tour (Doors-Off/On Option & Waikiki/North Shore)

Discover Oahu from Waikiki to the East Coast from Above

After checking in and receiving safety instructions at Rainbow Helicopters in Honolulu, board your helicopter. Upon takeoff, you'll be greeted by the Honolulu and Waikiki skyline, followed by a flight past Oahu's iconic Diamond Head as you head towards the east coast.

Journey past the Makapu'u Lighthouse and coastal cliffs, taking in the majestic scenery of the Koʻolau Range. Gaze down at the turquoise waters of Lanikai Beach and the coral reefs of Kaneohe Bay from above. You'll also spot Mokoliʻi, famously known as Chinaman's Hat Mokoliʻi (Chinaman's Hat).

Continue your flight inland over the lush rainforests, waterfalls, and valleys of central Oahu, heading north. Your pilot will provide live commentary throughout the flight, sharing insights about the areas and landmarks you're seeing.

Fly over Oahu for approximately 60 minutes, reaching the North Shore and Pearl Harbor

As you reach Oahu's North Shore, admire world-renowned surf spots like Banzai Pipeline and Waimea Bay from the air. On days with good waves, you might even witness surfers tackling the giant swells.

Travel back towards Honolulu along the coast, enjoying views of central Oahu. In the latter half of your flight, you'll get a bird's-eye view of Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial. Conclude your approximately 60-minute journey as you return to the Honolulu helicopter pad.
