Fly 150 metres above the water in a seaplane for an unforgettable experience with stunning views of Poé Lagoon, a UNESCO World Heritage-listed site!
Air Paradise offers seaplane microlight flights from its base at Poé, in Bourail, on the west coast of Province Sud, New Caledonia. The amphibious aircraft flies over the lagoon at about 150 metres, low enough to read the seabed, and can take off from Poé beach depending on tide and weather. Flights of twenty or forty-five minutes cover the faille de Poé, the Cœur de Poé or Roche Percée, with Safari and video options. A French-trained instructor also offers introductory flying lessons in a dual-control aircraft, for adults and children. Air Paradise recommends the 8 to 10 am slot, before the wind picks up and when marine life is easier to spot. Flights remain subject to weather. Staff speak French, English and Spanish.
