This helicopter flight showcases the magic of the Australia’s Great Barrier Reef as we fly along 4 Mile Beach northwards over Low Isles and onwards towards Snapper Island with Cape Tribulation and the Daintree Rainforest in the distance.

Circling the small township of Mossman we then head up to beautiful Mossman Gorge on a mission to seek out hidden waterfalls, granite boulders and trails in the lush green rainforest mountains.

The ultimate Great Barrier Reef site on this 60 minute Port Douglas helicopter flight is Batt Reef, a marine haven for beautiful mantarays, stingrays, turtles, sharks, dugongs, dolphins and the migratory Humpback whales and Dwarf Minke Whales.
