Superyacht ‘Flying Fish’ Offers Helicopter Access For Great Barrier Reef Charter Vacations

By Oliver Pearson 8 March 2017

The only charter yacht in the region to include a helipad and accompanying helicopter service, the 33m/108ft motor yacht ‘Flying Fish’ is perfect for discovering the Great Barrier Reef in style.

Built in 1991 and undergoing major refits in both 2001 and 2010, luxury yacht Flying Fish is unquestionably one of the best to ever cruise the waters of Australia.

Fully equipped to explore the world’s most iconic underwater landscape with ease, the motor yacht comes with a state of the art jet tender, diving gear, and a full-scale helipad on the sundeck aft.

In collaboration with a nearby Australian aviation team, it is possible for charter guests to maximise their experience of the reef by having a helicopter transfer them from the yacht to the best spots in North Queensland swiftly and stylishly.

Billed as one of the ‘seven natural wonders of the world’, the Great Barrier Reef remains one of the most sublime spots to visit for divers of varying abilities.

Stretching over 2,300km and comprised of more than 3,000 individual reefs, the opportunity to get up close to the natural wonder isn’t to be missed, and the chance to return to a superyacht promises to make the experience all the more special.
