About Mauna Loa Helicopters - Kona Coffee & Coastline Adventure

See the Kona Coast from above on a private helicopter journey that pairs sweeping ocean views with a landing at Kona Joe's coffee farm. Departing from Kona Airport, the flight follows the shoreline past some of the Big Island's most beautiful bays before touching down for a closer look at one of Kona's distinctive coffee-growing estates.

Fly over Kailua Bay and continue south toward the bright waters of Keauhou Bay. Farther along the coast, Kealakekua Bay comes into view with the Captain Cook Monument standing near one of the island's best-known snorkeling areas.

At Kona Joe's coffee farm in Kealakekua, enjoy an exclusive tour focused on the art of trellis-grown coffee. You may also roast your own beans to take home, adding a personal taste of Hawaii to this memorable land-and-air experience.

This is a private helicopter tour. The charter rate is per flight and includes either 3 or 4 passengers depending on tour option.
