Why We Love This Unique Experience

Newhaven Experience Gifts: Take to the skies to enjoy stunning views over the magnificent coastline of Phillip Island on a thrilling fifteen minute helicopter flight. See miles of beautiful coast, a haunting shipwreck, and lots more.

Your scenic flying adventure begins when you meet your pilot and board the red Robinson helicopter. Taking off from the heliport you’ll follow the coast to beautiful Smith’s Beach, a long stretch of white sand lapped by the crystal blue Indian Ocean. You’ll also spot the water lover's paradise of Surfies Point and Cunningham Bay with its long pier. There could be high speed action as you fly over the Grand Prix circuit too. Heading further out to sea you’ll pass the wreck of the SS Speke at Kitty Miller Bay, an atmospheric rusted structure which sank in 1907 after striking a reef. You might even notice some of Phillip Island’s most famous residents on Little Penguin Rock, home to a colony of 40, 000 birds.

A helicopter tour taking in Phillip Island’s highlights is a brilliant way to get a new view on the area and makes a high flying experience gift for friends and family.
