Sunset Helicopter Flight over Santorini from Fira

Finish your day with a bag with this incredible sunset helicopter flight over Santorini from Fira! Santorini is a Greek island located in the Aegean Sea and is well-known for its whitewashed houses, blue-domed churches, and volcanic landscapes. If you are a photography enthusiast, history lover, or simply trying to find an extraordinary experience while you visit Santorini, you can't miss this amazing helicopter flight.

On the day of your helicopter flight over Santorini, you'll need to arrive at the meeting point at the island's main airport in Fira at least 30 minutes before your departure time. There, you'll meet your expert instructor, who will welcome you warmly and check your ID for the flight (please bring a physical copy). While they check you in, they will plan for the weight distribution on the helicopter, since there needs to be a good balance for the helicopter to fly well. This means that you will not be able to choose your seat, but with 3 to 4 seats per helicopter, it shouldn't be a big deal. You'll also receive a safety briefing, so you know how the experience works and what to do to have a great time.

When you and your pilot are ready, it's time to take off! Your helicopter tour over Santorini will take you toward Oia with its whitewashed houses and blue-domed churches, which contrast dramatically with the bright blue of the Aegean. Next, it's time to head to the volcanic islands of Palea and Nea Kameni, which, from above, will give you a clear view of Santorini's geological history with its dark, rugged volcanic landscapes. You'll pass by Akrotiri with its famous archaeological site and impressive red cliffs, before heading toward Fira, the island's capital, with its strategic position that will allow you to observe the whole caldera for yourself. The final minutes of the flight will be spent over Imerovigli, a small, historic village with incredible views of the sun setting over the horizon.

All you need to do to participate in this amazing 20-minute sunset helicopter flight over Santorini is bring comfortable clothing, comfortable shoes, no food or drinks aside from a bottle of water, and your ID, which will be checked before the flight. If you want to take great pictures during the flight, you should bring dark-colored clothes, which avoid window reflections.
