Discover both the Big Island's beauty and its volcanic fury. Experience all the awesome spectacle of Madame Pele's lava and volcanic badlands which have been continuously erupting since 1983. Spot the black sand beaches to the lush rainforest along the rugged Hamakua Coast.

Take in the absolute wonder as your pilot descends amongst the lush flora and fauna along 1,200 foot cliffs to a grassy landing pad to the exclusive landing site only accessible by air. Step out of your Eco-Star helicopter at the edge of a fresh water pool and the thundering waterfall. Enjoy photo opportunities with the rainforest backdrop and mist of the falls.

Finally, the deep and immense tropical valleys of the Kohala Mountains, with dozens of cascading waterfalls, provide the perfect finish to the ultimate Big Island adventure.
