Tour Description:

Take this amazing Skydance helicopter tour and fly you over some of the finest sights Phuket has to offer.

Your journey over lush landscapes and blue waters begins at Phuket heliport located in Sa Khu, Nai Yang beach, just minutes from the Phuket International Airport. Just after taking off you'll pass Nai Thon beach before encircling the Millionaires Mile, stretch of jet setters real estate. From there, the captain will take you along the coast of Layan and Bang Tao beach before jumping over to Surin and Kamala beach. After Kamala beach, you will head to Kalim and cruise along the coast of Patong beach at a lower altitude. Viewing Patong beach from the air is exciting in itself, but peering down on someone parasailing is a totally different side of adventure in Phuket.

Next, the helicopter will soar along the beautiful bays and white sand beaches of Karon, Kata, and Kata Noi. Catch a glimpse of the crescent shaped bay of Nai Harn beach, a very charming spot that is popular amongst locals. Continue on to discover Phrom Thep Cape at the southern tip of Phuket. This romantic hotspot is said to be the best place on the island to catch the vivid sunset in Phuket. As a must see destination, busloads of visitors gather to watch the sun slowly kissing the ocean.

Have your cameras ready as the flight takes you on a visit to Phra Puttamingmongkol Akenakkiri Buddha. This 45 meters high and 25 meters wide Buddha statue, aptly nicknamed the ‘Big Buddha,' was built entirely from donations.

While your mind still revolves around this grand monument, your pilot will cruise over the Chalong temple or "Wat Chalong," one of the most ornate Buddhist temples on Phuket Island. The temple was dedicated to two highly revered monks, Luang Pho Chaem and Luang Pho Chuang. Open since 1876 it is now listed as one of the must see locations for Phuket visitors.

Your journey continues with Phuket's newest hilly golf course, Red Mountain Golf Course, officially launched July 2009. You may notice different elevations for this golf course, with cliffs and canyons, which makes it one of the new challenges for golfers on Phuket Island. Looking ahead, you'll notice a structure that resembles a medieval architecture or a castle from afar. The British International School, Phuket, is a well-established international educational institution on land, yet it is absolutely marvelous to see from the sky. Here you will also have a glimpse over the Royal Phuket Marina, overshadowed by the beautiful Phang Nga bay.

Your captain will breeze through Phuket's tropical rainforest heading directly back to Phuket heliport. On this last stretch, you'll see how the local Thais live and view plantations over the Thalang district.
