Seaplane Tour VictoriaHarbour Air
Description
A seaplane flight can be a truly magical experience! Imagine soaring above the water, taking in breathtaking views of the coastline, islands, and even wildlife from a unique perspective. The sensation of takeoff and landing on the water is unlike anything you've probably ever experienced before.
As the seaplane takes off, you'll feel the gentle rocking motion of the water and the thrill of lifting off into the air.
The landing on the water is also a unique experience. As the seaplane touches down, you'll feel the gentle splash of the water and the smooth deceleration as the plane comes to a stop.
