What do buy the man that has everything for his birthday? A flight and lunch at Cottage Point. For my husband's birthday we flew from Rose Bay to Cottage Point for lunch. It was a total surprise as he thought we were going to Catalinas which is located next to the seaplanes departure point. When we checked in at Sydney... More

I purchased 2 gift vouchers for a scenic flight Which is a 20 minute flight over Sydney Harbour & northern beaches. They run this flight daily at 10am. The day I booked to go was a flawless - perfectly clear blue skies & gorgeous sunshine. The whole experience was amazing. The views of Sydney speaks for itself. I was nervous... More

Had a great experience flying with Sydney seaplanes from Rose Bay to our overnight accomodation at Whale Beach near Pittwater and back again.The pilot Jarrad was friendly and professional and the flying experience out of this world. Flying in a seaplane is like harking back to the 1930's. It is such an intimate low tech feeling being in a tiny... More

We went to Jonah's for dinner on the Fly & Dine Dinner package. The flight was enjoyable and dinner at Jonah's was lovely. It would have been a perfect experience if not for an embarrassing incident at the end of the evening. In the Fly & Dine Dinner package, the return trip from Jonah's to Sydney CBD is by Town... More

I took my husband here as he'd always wanted to fly in a seaplane....Sydney was the perfect place to be. The staff were friendly and welcoming and gave us a safety brief before taking off on an exciting adventure. We took the longer 30 minute flight giving us a much wider view over Sydney & it's surrounding beaches like Manly.... More

Had to get back to Sydney from Newcastle - and These guys were about $200. Direct from Newcastle CBD to Rose Bay. Jumped on a Ferry and was in the CDB of Sydney in about 5 minutes. Newcastle CBD to Sydney CBD == 45 mins. SCORE! More

The morning we were to take our flight, Sydney was fogged in and we couldn't fly. The crew told us if the fogged lifted by the afternoon, they would hook us up with an afternoon flight. The fog lifted and they got us on a late afternoon flight. We were scheduled for a 30 minute flight over Sydney and we... More

My boyfriend treated me to a seaplane flight up to Kuringai for what is called by Sydney Seaplanes a "Romantic Picnic". They give you an amazing coast line trip with commentary and then drop you off in a secluded area on the beach at Kuringai National Park. The company was very professional and the plane was comfortable and safe. The... More

The lunch was awesome and the service offered by Sydney Seaplanes and staff was exceptional. We travelled one way on their new larger... More

We took a seaplane from Rosebay to Cottage Point for lunch to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary this week. We chose the other company (Sydney by seaplane) and were not disappointed. The pilot (Steve) was one of the owners, the other (Jenny) was efficient and helpful in my booking enquiries and advised me of some different options for the flights.... More
