Depart from Greymouth into the heart of some of the West Coast's rich mining history, with a flight over the old mining settlement of Rewinui, where native bush is slowly reclaiming this once bustling remote mining town. 

Journey towards the rugged West Coast over New Zealand’s spectacular Paparoa Range. Look down on the varied landscapes, from subtropical rain forest to alpine tops to the dramatic limestone gorge of the Pororari River. Gaze down in wonder at the Punakaiki pancake rocks and blowholes, where columns of water shoot skyward from rocks that resemble giant stacks of hotcakes. Flying over the Pancake Rocks and Blowholes at Punakaiki offers a unique perspective, revealing the geological wonder of the West Coast and showcasing the power of nature's forces. The flight allows for a panoramic bird eye view of the iconic Pancake Rocks, showcasing their layered structure formed over millions of years.  Views of the blowholes, where seawater shoots skyward during high tide, a spectacular display of nature's power.
