Kohala Coast Adventure

It was our first time to Hawaii and we were told not to miss taking a helicopter tour of the big island. So we booked our one hour and forty-five minute tour with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. It was a life changing experience. We have never seen our world from this perspective before and we were moved to tears. Our pilot Matt was awesome!!! Not only a great pilot who made us feel very comfortable, but so knowledgeable about the island, and did a great job talking us through where we were going and what we were looking at. This is a MUST DO if you come to Hawaii and I would only book with Blue Hawaiian!!! Professional, friendly, courteous, and worth every penny. Don't skip this!!!

Surreal!! We did the Kohala coastal adventure with waterfall landing and I'm so glad I chose the latter option. Totally worth it even though it's priced double. We took off from the Waikaloa helipad, crossed so many different biomes- dessert, meadows, coastal and mountain valley. We were a little concerned about the helicopter accidents in Hawaii but our pilot Matt seemed quite experienced and flew us over parts of land, coast and little distance into the valley with very little clouds. Flying over the coastal ocean with a view of the mountain cliffs and numerous waterfalls is unforgettable. The waterfall landing felt like a scene out of Jurassic park!! It was truly breathtaking!! Overall, a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!!
