Scenic flights in Gansbaai

There is no doubt that Gansbaai has some of the most spectacular sights in all of South Africa, but from up above you will stand in awe. Take to the skies and view the landscape as the crow flies. Let our scenic flight airplanes give you wings to soar up with the eagles and track your favourite of God’s creatures from the sky.

The flights provide unmatched sights and comfort, the perfect experience for photographers and animal lovers alike. The natural movements and interactions of our two favourite sea creatures are no longer restricted to the likes of David Attenborough. Anyone can now behold the socialising of Southern Right Whales and dramatic hunting of Great Whites without disturbing them or moving into their territory. And no better place to do so than the Big 2 Town.

The flights travel all the way up the western and eastern coasts and give you a new perspective on the changing topography of our beautiful country. Heading up the west coast, take in the sights from Cape Town to Swakopmund all the way up to the Skeleton Coast. Let your eye follow the windings of the Fish River Canyon and get sucked into the rich history of the coast’s sunken treasures.

Travel up the eastern coast to find yourself admiring the lavish beauty of the Garden Route and the Klein Karoo beyond. Day trips to a quaint, Malaria-free game lodge will have you viewing and learning about the Big 5 in no time. A slightly longer flight will put you in the heart of the Klein Karoo, known for its big birds and big festivals. Various Game Farms and our very own natural Cango Caves can all be discovered before catching the flight back to the Overberg.

Preferring to stay close to home, the stunning sights of the Cape Peninsula will keep you entertained. Passing over Hermanus, follow the contours of the rolling mountains and cast your eyes on the landscape of False Bay and Cape Point. Don’t forget to snap a quick photo of Cape Town’s trademark, Table Mountain.

The local day trips truly supply you with sights that are sure to last you a lifetime. Flying over Gansbaai, you won’t know where to cast your sights first. Sweeping over Walker Bay, you can watch the graceful movements of the Southern Right Whales and let your eyes move along the beaches of De Kelders.  Coming around the corner you head into the big boys’ territory; welcome to Shark Bay. Watch the Great White Sharks as they glide along, seemingly without purpose, but then you see them circling a seal or perhaps a shark boat.

The most southern tip of Africa is also up for viewing and much closer to the departure point. Coasting over the picturesque Struisbaai, this flight swoops down to where all manner of sea life gather to bask in the warm waters of the Agulhas current.

Our scenic flights are both safe and educational and can be customized to fit your every need. The endless views of ocean, land and sky will both humble and inspire . . . it’s your chance to spread your wings.
