Helicopter Flights Greymouth

Experience the thrill of a helicopter flight over the heart of the West Coast, Greymouth. Known by the Māori name of Māwhera, meaning widespread river mouth, referring to the mighty Grey River.
Take in the view from above by helicopter of the places that make this West Coast town unique. Get a bird’s eye view of the locally famous “Greymouth River Bar”, a notorious rough river mouth cautiously navigated by fishing boats.
In the spring, look down upon the many locals enjoying the whitebait season on the banks of the Grey River. Every year these little fish bring friends and families together for the catch and a few of the once locally brewed, Monteiths beer. If you ask anyone of these white baiters if they have caught much, the standard reply will most commonly be “Enough for a feed”. Never to give away if the catching has been plentiful!
Greymouth has a rich history of coal and gold mining. Your pilot can point out areas of interest that relate to these valuable West Coast resources. To the south, Shantytown Heritage Park is a recreated gold rush town with a museum and steam train.
If the weather is clear to the south, you may be lucky enough to see New Zealand’s highest mountain, Aoraki Mount Cook.
