The pub crawl was honestly one of the coolest experiences I’ve had. We kicked off at the Sunshine Coast Airport around 9am, then flew over the Tangalooma Wrecks to the Gutter Bar on Moreton Island.

Our final stop was Northan Grounds, then we headed back to the airport...

Best experience!! I may be biased, a background in aviation and just a huge aviation nerd, but it is a must do! My partner and I jumped in the As350 and got a beautiful view of the Sunny Coast. Our pilot was friendly, a wealth of knowledge and an all round top bloke. I would definitely do again! Thanks guys!
