🌍 What to Expect

Please arrive 10 minutes before your selected departure time at the designated meeting point in Cannes. A driver will escort you to the helicopter departure area for boarding. After a short safety procedure, you take off along the coastline for a structured aerial circuit.

The route first reveals the eastern Riviera: Golfe-Juan, Juan-les-Pins, Antibes and Biot, before reaching Nice and Saint-Laurent-du-Var. From above, you’ll see the Bay of Angels and sections of the coastline that are not visible from the road.

The flight then turns west towards the Lérins Islands and Mandelieu-la-Napoule before reaching the volcanic red cliffs of the Esterel Massif near Théoule-sur-Mer and Saint-Raphaël. The contrast between red rock formations and the Mediterranean is particularly distinct from the air before the helicopter returns to Cannes.
