Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

My girl and I were going on an ‘Island Day Tour’ not really knowing what to expect, but our apprehension was quickly replaced by a fantastic day of holiday destination hopping. From Cocktails on a secluded beach at McLarens Landing whilst listening to live music, a light snack at Tipplers, followed by a short bush walk back to the Couran Cove Resort for an afternoon wine and then the final leg of our journey back to the beach at Sea World. Thanks Pilot Pete for making today truly one to remember! The flexibility with your drop-offs and pick-ups, coupled with your witty humour made for a fun-filled enjoyable day. To anyone considering this kind of experience, you cannot go past the passion and enthusiasm Pete has for making your day a special one. Thanks again Pete! We’ll definitely be recommending your services to our friends and family.

This was the highlight of our trip to Queensland this year. The ride in a seaplane was going to be exciting in itself, however, we got a lot more than we bargained for. I would not like to spoil this excitement for anyone as it would be like telling you the end of a blockbuster movie :-)
Seriously this is something you should put on your to do list or surprise someone as a special gift. Pete was our pilot. He is so friendly yet very professional and made this adventure even more special. Thanks Pete. We will be back.

This is a must for those who like a little extra in their flight. Pete you are a funny bugga and great entertainment (while you are awake lol one of his jokes). Great views from all sorts of angles. Had my clan in awe of the views, some got better than others at times, but nobody missed out. Thanks for coordinating two trips in short notice and in a spectacular way. In a way I'm glad I conned my sis in-law to go only because she would never had done it, bad side to it was we couldn't shut her up for days. Was glad to send her off on a big plane lol. A big thumbs up from all of us Pete. Hope all goes well for the future, should be more of you in the world. 9.5/10 Cheers Jon.

Laura and I had an amazing time on Cloud 9 Seaplanes, Pete was great, and very very funny. Would not hesitate to do it again, and you might see us for our honeymoon!

We wanted to give our friend an experience for Christmas and she loved it. We took off from Couran Cove and flew to Southport and back. It was amazing to see the ocean, islands and land from the air rather than our boat.
Nathan was friendly and professional. Worth the money!

Tick tick tick 5 Star review isn’t enough , 10 out of 10 isn’t enough .
This trip is a highlight of my life I will never forget , From the minute Pete our Pilot picked us up it was just heartstopping ! breathtaking ! and amusing , especially when Pete told me I was in control of the plane lol , that was awesome , we touched down at Stradbroke Island and spent a few hours exploring, lazing on loungers in the sun and taking a train ride to the other side of the Island to the beach and back , a nice bite to eat and Pete picked us up again for another breath taking view .
I couldn’t have asked for a better way to have spent my 50th Birthday than up in the Float Plane ! Magnificent

Highly recommended. If I am ever back on the Gold Coast I will do it again. Great Flying experience in a seaplane and a great pilot who knows how to entertain.

Wow....what a ride. Our pilot Pete was a class act from the moment we met him. The flight over the Surfers Paradise was breathtaking. Our lunch on a secluded beach was beautiful. It is something you must do.

The seaplane itself is very comfortable and the take-off, flight and landing is great fun. The entire experience was beyond awesome.

I can't remember the last time I smiled quite so much! Amazing views over surfers paradise and south stradbroke island.

Takeoff and landing on the water was such an exhilarating experience, the view of the coastline was spectacular! For anyone who is making the most of their time on the GC, going up in the Seaplane is certainly a way to see a whole lot of the coast in a short space of time.

This was the highlight of my trip to GC. The ride in a seaplane was going to be exciting in itself, however, I have a lot more than I bargained for.

You will find 24 high quality pictures from that flight in my gallery.

I can guarantee that by the time you've finished the flight, you'll be so pleased that you'll be recommending this awesome experience to all your friends and family! Pete the pilot is superbly friendly, fun, accommodating, easy-going!
