San Diego is known for its beautiful beaches. Tourists travel from across the globe to visit the 70 miles of the beautiful coastline, so we put together an epic helicopter tour to set your sights on the best sights – Our ‘Beaches & Bays’ 30 minute coastal helicopter tour.
Once you depart from Montgomery Field, you will fly north around Solana Beach. This north county coastal region will draw you in with its unbelievable cliffs that sit directly on the beach. You’ll be able to see the side of the cliff and coves that most people can’t walk to – this will help you plan your next adventure on foot. From there, you will fly down to a local favorite, Encinitas. This beach is popular for families and watching the green flash sunset together. You’ll spot children playing at Moonlight Beach at the local park, along with paddle boarding in the surf and playing beach volleyball. This area is a must see! The next area that will capture your attention is Del Mar – this famous area features a local dog beach and the ocean runs into the San Dieguito River. The famous Del Mar Racetrack is in sight – this is literally where the ‘surf meets the turf’! You might be able to take in views of the country’s finest thoroughbred horses.
Once you make your way down the coast, you will see Torrey Pines Golf Course from a vantage point that most will never encounter. From the Pacific Ocean, you will take in the lush fairways, and dramatic cliffs. This course has hosted many PGS Tours; including the US Open – a golfer’s dream to see from the skies!
The most popular view has to be La Jolla, known as “the Jewel of San Diego”. With stunning scenery from picturesque coves, to beautiful beaches, La Jolla offers breathtaking views and natural beauty that attracts both locals and tourists.
