Paradise Helicopters, Turtle Bay Resort Helipad, Oahu

One of my favorite things to do in Hawaii is take a helicopter tour. Until the spring of 2007, I had never flown over Oahu and I was eager to see the North Shore and Windward Coast from the air.

I discovered that there is a helicopter company that flies out of a helipad at the Turtle Bay Resort - Paradise Helicopters. The Turtle Bay Resort is located about half way between Haleiwa on the North Shore's western end and Kaneohe Bay at the southern point of Oahu's Windward Coast. It seemed like the perfect location to start a helicopter tour highlighting those areas.

Looking over the various tours offered, I noticed that Paradise Helicopters offers a tour, "The Oahu X-TREME," which features "no doors" thus providing the "best picture taking opportunity." I hope you enjoy my Review of Paradise Helicopters, Turtle Bay Resort Helipad, Oahu.
