Helicopter Flight Napier - Hastings

Ngā Tāone Mahanga - Twin Cities

Napier & Hastings in one helicopter ride

Ever wondered how Napier and Hastings look from a bird's eye view?

Whether you're a local keen to spot your home from an aerial perspective, or a visitor eager to witness the vibrancy of our twin cities from the sky, this flight is designed for you.

Embark on a helicopter ride over Ahuriri [Napier] and Heretaunga [Hastings], and behold the panoramic vistas of our cities as you soar over the coastline. Look down at Napier’s bustling port, observe the waves breaking against Westshore, marvel at the wineries dotted below, and perhaps even pinpoint your own residence or accommodation. From the heart of Hawke’s Bay, your view extends to the iconic Te Mata Peak, the dramatic Cape Kidnappers, and beyond to the Kaweka and Ruahine Ranges.
