Take off from Saint-Pierre airport for a unique helicopter flight over Reunion Island and the Cilaos and Mafate cirques!

The cirques of Mafate and Cilaos are exceptional natural sites and UNESCO World Heritage Sites. They were created following major collapses on the Piton des Neiges massif and powerful erosion. With their breathtaking relief, they are a truly impressive sight from the air!

If you fly over the Cirque de Cilaos by helicopter, you will have a view of a majestic caldera of trees, the sunniest cirque on the island while if you fly over the Cirque de Mafate, you will discover a concentration of nature, with spectacular protected wild areas. It is not for nothing that this is the wildest cirque on the island, accessible only from the air by helicopter, or on foot from the ground!

This helicopter flight over the cirques of Cilaos and Mafate lasts around 25 minutes, giving you an unforgettable panoramic view of Reunion Island. The flight ends over the magnificent lagoon of Saint-Pierre, with its turquoise reflections and white sandy beach. You will enjoy the experience alongside a pilot who will be delighted to tell you a few anecdotes about the sites visited.

So don't wait any longer and book this helicopter flight from Saint-Pierre to enjoy the thrills and discover the heart of Reunion Island!

Nous avons fait le survol des 3 cirques avec Mika et c’était vraiment incroyable. Le pilote nous donnais toutes les explications concernant ces cirques durant le vol. Un chouette moment que je recommande vivement.
