Helicopter tours in Kauai, Hawaii
Much of Kauai's most dramatic scenery, including the Nā Pali Coast's sea cliffs, hidden waterfalls, and the Waimea Canyon, is only reachable by air or a multi-day hike, which is what makes a helicopter tour here worth it.
When's the best time to fly?
The drier season (April to October) generally means fewer weather delays, while the wetter winter months (November to March) bring lower cloud but often make the waterfalls more dramatic. Morning flights tend to have the clearest visibility before afternoon clouds build up.
What should I bring?
A light rain jacket regardless of the season, since Kauai's interior is one of the wettest places on Earth, plus something to secure loose items if you book a doors-off flight.
What if the weather doesn't cooperate?
Like most operators, tours in Kauai have standard weight and balance limits (you may be asked your weight when booking or checking in), and pilots will delay or reschedule rather than fly in unsafe wind, low visibility, or storms. Booking a tour with free cancellation means a weather delay won't cost you anything.
