Aerial Tours and Introductory Flight Lessons

Monterey, CA

Our pilots will take you on an amazing flight with lots of photo opportunities and incredible scenery only a few can claim to experience from the air. Our tour pilots can customize any flight according to your wishes. Bring your camera and a friend or two! If you want to try your hand at flying the airplane, book one of our introductory flight lessons!
$299 Monterey Bay & Big Sur Tour
Please contact our office to purchase and schedule this tour.

For 1 or 2 people, 3rd person subject to weight limits.  We depart Monterey Airport out over the water and follow the lovely beaches along Monterey Peninsula, Carmel Bay, Point Lobos, and then down the dramatic Big Sur coast, with mountains dropping straight into the sea and views of US Highway 1 clinging precariously to the cliff face.

You may spot whales and dolphins, especially in early spring or late fall. Along the beach you’ll often spot seals or sea lions hauled out to rest, most notably near the world-class Monterey Bay Aquarium.

$199 One-hour Monterey Bay Tour
Please contact our office to purchase and schedule this tour.

Depart over Monterey Bay in our Cessna 172, a popular four-seat airplane. A highly trained commercial pilot will fly the airplane while you and your passengers snap pictures and stare in awe at the breathtaking Monterey coastline. Depending on seasonal fog, you can either turn southeast toward Carmel Bay and Big Sur, or northwest toward Santa Cruz and its famous Boardwalk. Either way, the sights are stunning. Bring a friend or relative and definitely a camera to capture this memorable flight.
