Sensational Townsville and Great Barrier Reef island 60 minute helicopter flight over the Palm Island Archipelago and the Great Barrier Reef of Australia.
If you are on a cruise ship tour in Townsville or you are short on time and wish to see all the beautiful attractions around Townsville in a day, then book a 60 minute scenic helicopter flight to see all the wonderful things to do in Townsville and her surrounds.
Taking off from the Townsville airport your helicopter pilot converses with you thru the headsets pointing out places of interest as you fly along the east coast along the Great Barrier Reef.
Your first view will be Magnetic Island and then the helicopter tracks its way out to the Coral Sea towards the Palm Island Archipelago.
This area is one of the most prized assets of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.
After circling and exploring the beaches, islands and coral reefs we fly back to see the sights of Townsville city.
