Kohala Coast & Waterfalls Helicopter Tour from Kona on Hawaii Island

Overview
Fly with Paradise to the Kohala Valleys to hover amidst the breathtaking 2500’ waterfalls and sheer cliff faces. En route, you will witness frozen lava flows on the Kona and Kohala coasts from the 1801 Hualalai eruption and the 1859 Mauna Loa eruption, which traveled over 31 miles before reaching the now world-famous Kohala Coast. Dotting the shoreline along the way, you can pick out pristine white and black sand beaches -- including Mahai’ula, Kiholo, Anaeho’omalu and Hapuna – to visit during your stay! Upon arriving to the lush landscape of Kohala, your pilot will not only show you its rugged coastline, home to dramatic valleys, but will also educate you about this region’s significance in Hawai'ian history as the birthplace of Hawai’i’s most famous alii, Kamehameha the Great. Departing from the Kona International Airport, this 60-minute tour is a great choice for guests wanting to see the beauty of Kohala, without sacrificing beach time for drive time.

My long-time friend came for a visit from the mainland and we chose to take a helicopter tour for our joint 60-year birthdays. I chose Paradise Helicopters to take us up. I'm so glad that I did. We originally were going to do the Volcano/Kohala with a landing, but due to weather concerns we shifted to the Kohala waterfalls with a landing. We had such a great time. Our pilot, Paige, was very knowledgeable and made the entire flight interesting and exciting. Speaking as an over 30-year resident of the island, the island looks much different from the air. You see parts that you never see from ground and it gives a different perspective to whole experience. I would recommend that anyone coming to the islands should try to take a flight; it really is a wonderful experience. Thank you Paige and Paradise Helicopters!
