Mt Fyffe – Kaikōura Helicopters (40 mins with summit landing) Discover one of Kaikōura’s most iconic flights. Lift off from our beachfront helipad and soar north over the Puhi Puhi Valley, crossing private farmland into remote DOC wilderness. Fly through the dramatic Hapuku Gorge, where cliff faces, quake fractures, and the impressive Hapuku Quake Lake showcase the region’s raw geology. Your helicopter climbs toward Mt Fyffe, landing at 1602m for a breathtaking panorama where the Seaward Kaikōura Range meets the Pacific Ocean—a view normally earned after a four-hour hike. Enjoy unforgettable photos, peaceful alpine air, and snow landings in winter. Descend along Mt Fyffe’s rugged slopes, watching for wild deer and chamois before returning to Kaikōura township. • Best view in Kaikōura – unbeatable ocean-and-alpine vistas. • Effortless access – reach the summit in minutes, no hiking required. • Photographer’s dream – dramatic landscapes and epic proposal-ready moments.
