Ascend above the port in a private helicopter and trace the breathtaking coastline — turquoise lagoons, coral atolls, and dense mangrove forests unfolding beneath you. The most dramatic perspective of East Africa's coast, reserved for those who refuse to simply look from the deck.
What to expect
Your pilot briefs you dockside before a short transfer to the helipad. Lift off over the harbour and watch the town shrink beneath you as turquoise water stretches to the horizon. The reef systems below are staggering in scale and colour from altitude. Your pilot shares ecological highlights via headset, then swings inland for a view of the hinterland before a smooth return to the helipad.
