Our helicopter, a Bell 407, is one of the worlds most fully equipped units, featuring IFR single-pilot capabilities to face almost any weather condition, plus the possibility of safely taking back guests to the mainland under intensive weather conditions or limited visibility.

Forward and rear 15 inch monitors with an unprecedented moving map capability will give you an outstanding graphical display of where you are flying. Cargo baskets will carry our zodiacs, outboard engines and all related equipment to spots that dictate safe means of moving around not only by foot.
