Cape Reinga Half Day Tour by Aeroplane

The initial stage of the tour consists of a 45-minute flight up to Cape Reinga via Northland’s spectacular harbours, such as the Whangaroa Harbour and the Rangaunu Harbour. We also pass across some beautiful beaches such as Coopers Beach, Doubtless Bay and of course the famous Ninety Mile Beach. From Ninety Mile Beach, we then fly inland, where we land at our airfield, which is only 20km from the Cape Reinga lighthouse.

Once on the ground, a comfortable air-conditioned minivan will meet the aircraft. It will take you on a 2½ vehicle hour tour around the top of New Zealand to visit the Cape Reinga Lighthouse, where the Tasman Sea meets the Pacific Ocean,  Tapotupotu Bay and Te Paki sand dunes.

The return 1-hour flight to the Bay of Islands includes some of the most spectacular coastal scenery Northland has to offer. You will fly over the Parengarenga Harbour and Great Exhibition Bay. This area is very remote and without a doubt one of the most beautiful places in New Zealand with its pure white silica sand and crystal clear water. The flight also passes across the Houhora Harbour, the Cavalli islands, Kauri Cliff’s golf course and the spectacular Bay of Islands.

Please note that all departures are subject to weather and a minimum of 2 passengers.
