What To Expect
Sunshine Helicopters
See the highlights of West Maui, then look for humpback whales (in season) as you cross the Pailolo channel to discover Hawaii’s tallest waterfalls along Molokai’s remote and isolated north shore. See and learn about the settlement for patients with Hansen’s disease at Kalaupapa where  Father Damien ministered to their needs in the late 1800’s. Then return through the heart of the West Maui Mountains.
Molokai’s isolated north shore boasts the world’s steepest sea cliffs that were created by a massive “earthslide” 1.4 million years ago. Some of these cliffs rise 3,000 feet into the misty rain forests of Kamako’u (Elev. 4,961’). Soar through ancient valleys where some of Hawaii’s first settlements were located and fly by plunging waterfalls that provide stunning scenery for one of the most spectacular aerial tours on earth.Â
Â
On the return to Maui view the ancient Hawaiian Fish Ponds and the longest, fringing coral reef in the United States at nearly 25 miles long.

Spencer was great! Very relaxing and beautiful trip. Highly recommend. Full 60 minutes. Couldn’t do Haleakala due to clouds but this was so worth it!
Must Do in Kona!

Great tour! We learned so much about the island. It was a smooth ride and the highlight of our trip.we saw locations that we could have never accessed on land. It was really neat seeing inside an active volcano crater.
Amazing Flight

This was awesome! Our guide Christina knew so much about the islands and their history. Made other great travel recommendations as well. If you go during whale season you will be able to see the whales via helicopter!

Fantastic ride to see west Maui and huge Molokai waterfalls. Highly recommend this tour on Maui. I would suggest doing this early

Our pilot was Carlos, he was reassuring and pleasant. His comments about the trip were terrific . The trip was 45 min, 1/3 of which was over the ocean between Maui and Molokai. While Molokai was great I felt we wasted a lot of time over the ocean not seeing much. They would not let us take our own picture next to the helicopter, they had a photographer and then offered us the pic for $15, I felt that was silly. When you are paying over $1100 why nickel & dime the guests.
