While islands like Maui and Kauai are known for their lushness, on Oahu, Waikiki&#8217;s cosmopolitan streets garner most of the attention. However, Waikiki only takes up a fraction of space on Oahu. Beyond the city, the island is home to craggy sea cliffs, verdant mountains, miles of beaches, and the occasional 1,000+ foot waterfall (no biggie). Yet, the blend of both manmade and natural beauty are what makes Oahu helicopter tours so appealing. On a single trip, you can peer down into the metropolitan heartbeat of the island, and mere minutes later, find yourself deep within a narrow valley.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13701\" src=\"https:\/\/activityauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/top-oahu-helicopter-tours.jpg\" alt=\"Top Oahu Helicopter Tours\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1487\" srcset=\"https:\/\/activityauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/top-oahu-helicopter-tours.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/activityauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/top-oahu-helicopter-tours-1080x1338.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/activityauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/top-oahu-helicopter-tours-908x1125.jpg 908w, https:\/\/activityauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/top-oahu-helicopter-tours-242x300.jpg 242w, https:\/\/activityauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/top-oahu-helicopter-tours-826x1024.jpg 826w, https:\/\/activityauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/top-oahu-helicopter-tours-768x952.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There is a good reason why these tours are praised as a must-do.

This route passes over the ancient volcanic pu\u02bbus of Diamond Head and Koko Head before reaching Makapu\u02bbu Point, home to the iconic Makapu\u02bbu Lighthouse.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Makapu\u02bbu, Oahu&#8217;s entire windward coast is spread out before you. As the flight heads north, you&#8217;ll be treated to views of the gaping Ka\u02bba\u02bbawa Valley (made famous by Jurassic Park), Chinaman&#8217;s Hat, and even Sacred Falls, which has been closed to the public since 1999. From here, you&#8217;ll speed over to the north shore, or as surfers call it, the Seven Mile Miracle. Here you can take in views of famous surf breaks like Waimea Bay and Pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, this flight concludes with a slow flyover of Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial before heading back to Honolulu Airport.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Know Before You Go:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u25cf Flight time totals about 55-60 minutes.

Experience Tour, you can live out a scene from one of the most iconic television shows filmed in Hawaii.<\/p>\n<p>This tour circumnavigates the entire windward side of the island, starting from Honolulu Airport. After a quick pass over Waikiki, the flight heads over the rugged east side, dotted with bays and beaches like Hanauma Bay and Makapu\u02bbu. From there, you&#8217;ll skirt along the windward coast towards the shimmering waters of Kaneohe Bay and the gaping Ka\u02bba\u02bbawa Valley. Countless scenes from Magnum P.I. were filmed in this valley, which was made famous by Jurassic Park.<\/p>\n<p>After you travel over steep waterfalls, deep valleys, and broad bays, you&#8217;ll buzz over to the north shore to check out some world-class surfing locations. Then, when it&#8217;s time to head back to the airport, you&#8217;ll conclude with a relaxed flight over the <a href=\"https:\/\/activityauthority.com\/top-oahu-activities\/\">USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Know Before You Go:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u25cf To get the authentic Magnum P.I. experience, book this tour doors off!

Before long, this craggy coast reaches Makapu\u02bbu Point, home to a lighthouse, rocky sea cliffs, and a golden strip of sand. From the air, you&#8217;ll also be greeted by views of Oahu&#8217;s windward coast spread out before you as you begin your flight back to the airport.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Know Before You Go:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u25cf This tour is entirely private and only takes passengers within the same party.
