About the activity

A 15,000-hectare nature reserve, Grand Cul-de-sac Marin is a Guadeloupe bay located between the north coast of Basse-Terre and the west coast of Grande-Terre. With its heavenly islets, exceptional mangrove swamps and strikingly blue waters, Grand Cul-de-sac Marin is a must-see for nature lovers in Guadeloupe.

To appreciate the beauty of this site from a unique angle, join the Îles du Ciel team and climb aboard their seaplane, the only one of its kind in Guadeloupe and even the French West Indies! Comfortably seated aboard this aircraft with its open cockpit but protected from the wind, you'll have the best possible view of the beautiful beaches of the Grand Cul-de-sac Marin. Not only will you have an unobstructed view, but you'll also have the privilege of being alone on board with a pilot who knows Guadeloupe inside out. He'll tell you lots of anecdotes about the sites of interest you'll see, so you can learn a lot more about the region!

Your seaplane flight over the Grand Cul-de-sac Marin begins when you arrive at the Les Îles du Ciel base. Every year, more than 800 hours of flying are carried out here, which is a guarantee of confirmed know-how and perfect mastery of this activity. On site, you'll be warmly welcomed with a coffee before following your pilot to the seaplane to begin the aerial adventure. A former bush pilot in Africa, where he kept watch over elephants and other savannah animals, your pilot is a real specialist in water landings and has already carried out over 3,000 of them! What's more, during the flight you'll have the opportunity to perform a "touch-and-go", a technique that consists of putting the seaplane down on the water for a short moment, then immediately resuming take-off without stopping completely to feel the sensation of gliding!

There are two different options for this seaplane flight in Guadeloupe. The first is to take off for a 1-hour flight over the Grand Cul-de-sac marin to admire the coral reef, the mangrove swamps and the îlet Caret. The second option is more complete, adding the canals of the Rivière Salée to the sites mentioned above and, depending on the weather, the discovery of several secret islets. You can also add a swimming option to your flight and enjoy a refreshing moment at îlet Caret. Either way, you'll be dazzled by the aerial panoramas you see during your seaplane session from Le Gosier!
