Feel the thrill of flying over the picturesque coral-studded sea before landing on Vlasoff Cay, a pristine and secluded island. Here, you will enjoy a gourmet picnic hamper and sparkling wine amongst the Great Barrier Reef. Snorkel straight off the beach after your picnic in paradise.
An exclusive experience, on your own piece of paradise. Feel the thrill of flying over the picturesque coral-studded sea before landing on Vlasoff Cay - a pristine sand cay in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef. Relax on the pure white sand, beach comb for treasures, lay in the shallow crystal waters or snorkel straight off the cay and discover the magic of the underwater world. The experience is complete with gourmet picnic hamper and sparkling wine and helicopter return to Cairns.
This experience is 3 hours in duration, consisting of 2 hours on the cay and approximately 40 minute scenic flight time.
Please note, Vlasoff and Undine Sand Cay are public sand cays that cannot be reserved. While no refunds apply if occupied on arrival, alternative arrangements are discussed and confirmed at booking.
This experience is for two people.
In the event of rain or inclement weather your experience will still go ahead unless contacted by the experience provider
It is recommended you bring swimmers, a towel, sunscreen and a hat.
There is an EPA ruling that prevents any helicopter company from landing on the sand cay if it is already occupied. Exclusivity cannot be guaranteed by any operator as the cay is open to boats and the public. If by chance another operator or members of the public are already there, we would then take an extra scenic flight to Turtle Beach, which is a lovely beach south of Cairns.
This experience takes place on Vlasoff Sand Cay on the Great Barrier Reef. The helicopter departs from Cairns QLD.
