Full description

Immerse yourself in the mesmerizing beauty of the Pacific Ocean as you soar just 150 feet above the captivating coastline.
Keep your eyes peeled for playful dolphins and, depending on the season, you might even catch a glimpse of magnificent whales. Departing from Hawthorne Airport, our shoreline tour kicks off at Redondo Pier, guiding you northward over the renowned beaches of Los Angeles. As we descend to 150 feet, we'll pass by King Harbor, Hermosa Beach pier, and Manhattan Beach pier, before transitioning through the departure end of LAX Airport where commercial airliners gracefully take off above us.
Prepare for an exhilarating 180-degree turn around the world-famous Santa Monica Pier, capturing picture-perfect moments. Along the way, catch glimpses of the Venice Beach Canals, Marina Del Rey, and the vibrant Playa Del Rey, known as "Silicon Beach" in a nod to Northern California's Silicon Valley. As we make our way back to Hawthorne Airport, don't forget to glance at the sprawling LAX airport complex, witnessing planes landing and taking off, adding to the excitement of this unforgettable aerial adventure.
