The bay of Cannes and the Estérel by helicopter

Departure from the Quai du Large, in Cannes itself. The flight passes over the two Lérins islands and their clear seabed, runs along the Croisette and Le Suquet, then heads for the red rock of the Estérel falling into the sea at Le Trayas. Red porphyry against deep blue is the most photogenic contrast on the coast.

Frequently asked questions

Can the aircraft be chartered privately?
Yes. All our scenic flights can be privatised — the whole aircraft to yourself, whatever the number of passengers. It is also the only way to guarantee an exact departure time, since a shared flight depends on the aircraft filling up.
What happens if the weather is bad?
A flight never departs in degraded conditions: the decision rests with the pilot, usually the day before. The flight is then postponed, or refunded, according to the operator's own terms — we reproduce them word for word on each page, before any request.
Can children fly?
Yes, from the age of 2 on most aircraft, and on an adult's lap below that age depending on the operator. Each passenger's weight is requested at booking so the aircraft can be correctly balanced.
