Take a look at either Montserrat or Antigua from a totally different perspective, on a helicopter flight! An exciting flight over the active Soufrière Hills Volcano to take a rare view of this rumbling mountain. Or see Antigua Island from the air, beautiful white sandy beaches, miles of protective reefs and lush tropical island vegetation.
Helicopter tours offer a variety of truly amazing panoramic delights, priceless memories and photographic opportunities for both around the island tours and Montserrat volcano tour. Flights can be arranged for a 45 minutes Montserrat Volcano Tour, and a 15 or 30 minutes Antigua Island Tour.
A flight over Montserrat offers a very rare opportunity to witness an active volcano from a safe distance. After laying dormant for over half a century, the Soufrière Hills Volcano rumbled to life in 1995 and has been active ever since. Activity increased in 1997, with huge eruptions of lava, rocks and ash changing the face of Montserrat forever. Entire villages were engulfed by pyroclastic flows, and the southern half of the island was evacuated and is still considered an exclusion zone today.
Antigua is just 13 miles across but has many coves and bays, and 365 white sand beaches - one for every day of the year! The island has warm, steady winds, a complex coastline of safe harbors, and a protective, nearly unbroken wall of coral reef. Seeing Antigua from a helicpoter is a beautiful sight, one not easily forgotten.
