The Maui Tours for an Oceanfront Landing
A Helicopter Tour That Takes You There – And Touches Down
Some maui tours offer views of the islands from above. Air Maui’s Oceanfront Landing flight lets you experience the islands from the air and the ground.
The West Maui and Molokai Helicopter Tour offers stunning views of Maui from the air. It also includes a special landing by the ocean at our private North Shore spot. You’ll fly over West Maui’s ridges. You’ll cross the Pailolo Channel to Molokai’s towering sea cliffs and waterfalls. Then you’ll touch down oceanside to take it all in before returning to the heliport.
Some of the Maui helicopter tours are short and sweet. We designed this one to linger. We want our guests to enjoy the sunshine, feel the breeze, and see the coastline from the ground before flying again.

A Maui Tour Across West Maui and Molokai
Your journey begins with a smooth takeoff from the heliport and a climb over the ridges of West Maui. From here, the landscape opens. Green valleys, sharp ridge lines and the coastline stretching toward open water.
You’ll then cross the Pailolo Channel to Molokai’s north shore, where the scale changes! World’s tallest sea cliffs rise straight from the ocean. Waterfalls spill down rainforest-covered valleys. The terrain feels rugged, remote, and untouched.
These are some of the tallest sea cliffs in the world – and many of the views are only possible from the air.
A Rare Oceanfront Landing Experience
On the return flight, the experience shifts again.
You’ll land at Air Maui’s private oceanfront landing location on the North Shore of Maui. Here, the helicopter touches down and you’ll have time to step out, stretch your legs, and take in the very remote views from the ground.
Waves moving along the shoreline. Open sky. A quiet moment to absorb where you’ve just been and where you are. This landing is what sets the tour apart. It turns a scenic flight into a full experience.
Why Our Maui Tours Are Different
This flight follows the same scenic route as our West Maui & Molokai Helicopter Tour. The aerial portion alone is one of the most scenic and dramatic Maui tours by helicopter. This version adds more. In it, you’ll experience:
- A full aerial tour of West Maui
- A channel crossing to Molokai
- Remote cliffs, rainforest, and waterfalls
- A private oceanfront landing
- A relaxed return flight along Maui’s coastline
The 75-minute duration refers to the full event. From leaving the heliport to returning, we’ve crafted a journey that unfolds in unforgettable moments.

Is the Oceanfront Landing Maui Tour Right for You?
This tour is a great fit if you:
- Want the full West Maui and
- Molokai Helicopter Tour route
- Like the idea of landing and exploring mid-experience
- Prefer a longer, well-paced Maui tour
- Are traveling with family or multiple generations
- Want variety without committing to a fully custom charter
If you’re short on time or prefer a quick aerial overview, one of Air Maui’s shorter tours may be a better option. This tour delivers with a more layered experience.
What to Expect Before You Fly
Your experience begins with check-in at least 30 minutes prior to departure. Before boarding, you’ll receive a safety briefing and an overview of the flight and landing sequence.
Once airborne, the ride is smooth and comfortable. Communication with your pilot remains clear throughout the flight. The focus stays on comfort, clear communication, and enjoying the scenery.
See More. Land Once. Remember It All.
The West Maui & Molokai with Oceanfront Landing tour offers something rare. A complete journey. Air, land, and sea coming together in one experience.
If you’re looking for a helicopter tour that goes further — and touches down along the way — this flight delivers.
