While in port in Sydney, see the city and sights from the air in an immaculately restored seaplane. Make your own way to the water taxi in Circular Quay or Darling Harbour, for a short trip to Rose Bay, the departure point for the seaplane. Choose from two scenic flight options, or for a real treat, upgrade to fly to Cottage Point Inn for a relaxed lunch on the water.
The 15-minute scenic seaplane flight takes you from Rose Bay over the sights of Sydney, from the harbor to the sandstone cliffs rising from the sea. You'll fly above the world-famous Bondi Beach, where your pilot will maneuver the aircraft so that all on board have great views of the scores of surfers waiting to catch the next big wave.
From Bondi, head back to the harbor to climb to 1,000 feet (305 meters) for a truly stunning view of Sydney. You'll complete a circuit above the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House, for unforgettable photo opportunities of the two famous icons.
Choose the 30-minute seaplane flight for aerial views of Sydney's famous Northern Beaches. From Sydney Harbour, fly north along the coast all the way to Palm Beach, with views of Manly, Curl Curl and Avalon beaches. See yachts bobbing on the water of Pittwater's inlets on your flight back to Rose Bay, and have terrific views of the magnificent Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House from the air.
For a real treat, indulge in a three-course lunch at Cottage Point Inn, in Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, only 20 minutes flying time from Rose Bay. Enjoy a leisurely two-hours to dine right on the water at Cottage Point, choose from a modern Australian menu featuring local wines and produce, including fish and seafood from the nearby Hawkesbury River. The return flight by scenic seaplane takes you right over the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House before landing at Rose Bay.
Whichever scenic flight you choose, at the end of your flight you'll be returned to Circular Quay or Darling Harbour by water taxi.
