What To Expect

This 30 minute experience is an ideal introduction to seaplane aviation and includes spectacular vistas of downtown Victoria and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, with the Olympic Mountains in the distance. Enjoy unique grand houses perched above rugged coastline. The exhilarating spray of the water is always a highlight during take-off and landing.

Fly over the shimmering waters of Elk Lake, a popular spot for rowing and outdoor recreation, framed by lush forest and rural charm.

3

Catch a glimpse of Mount Douglas and its expansive views stretching across the Saanich Peninsula—a local favorite for hiking and scenic overlooks.

4

Soar above the deep, fjord-like inlet of Finlayson Arm, nestled between forested hills and dramatic cliffs—a hidden gem of southern Vancouver Island.

Enjoy a sweeping view of Saanich Inlet, with its calm, reflective waters and rich marine ecosystems, bordered by the rolling terrain of the peninsula.

Upon reaching the edge of the peninsula, your flight path arcs back over Victoria’s Western Communities before passing above the historic Esquimalt Dockyards—a key part of Canada's naval heritage.
