Great Barrier Reef 40 Minutes Scenic Flight | DAINAIR

Great Barrier Reef 40 Minutes Scenic Flight | DAINAIR

We now have a dedicated fully air-conditioned, beautifully coached aircraft exclusively in Cairns for our 40 minute reef scenic flight and this is the only one of its kind.

The seating is extremely comfortable just like sitting in you lounge room on your favourite arm chair; large windows ensure you get stunning views of the Great Barrier Reef.

We are the longest running scenic air charter service in Cairns Australia under the one management team and we take pride in showing off the diversity of our country to international guests. 

Our 40 minute Great Barrier Reef scenic reef flight covers up to 140 kilometres of the Outer Barrier Reef showing guests the sheer enormity of the length and breadth of the Great Barrier Reef ledges and coral lagoons that protect the Australian coastline from cyclones and huge tidal waves.

On this low level scenic flight you will cross over many islands, solitary sand cays with their white sand shining brightly in the sunshine and even see marine life as they glide along the surface of the water.

Taking a scenic flight from Cairns in the months on July to September are extra special as you have a high chance of seeing the migration of the giant Humpback Whales and the Dwarf Minke Whales .

From the comfortable seat of your aircraft you will be able to see Manta Rays, Dolphins, Sharks and Green Sea Turtles.

The great thing about flying over the Great Barrier Reef every day is you just never know what it is that you will come across at different times of the year as various types of fish migrate to these waters at different times and a good example of that is in the months of November to March for the Coral Spawning of which they feast upon and then feast upon each other.
