Welcome to
Makani Kai Helicopters

Makani Kai Helicopters offers spectacular aerial tours of the island of Oahu for discriminating travelers. Since 1988, Makani Kai has treated tens of thousands of visitors to some of the best views and most memorable tours of Hawaii. Our jet turbine helicopters offer passengers superb comfort, first-class audio, exceptional DVD recording and, most important, outstanding views of the lush scenery of Hawaii.

You’ll see Pearl Harbor and the bookends of WWII, the Arizona Memorial and the Battleship Missouri; the Ala Wai Yacht Harbor, Aloha Tower and Marketplace, and historic Honolulu Harbor pass beneath in a wave of color. Get a bird’s eye view of Punchbowl, the National Cemetery of the Pacific, as well as Waikiki, Diamond Head and the splendor of Hanauma Bay. Touring by helicopter is the only way to see many of Oahu’s natural attractions, including towering Sacred Falls, the lush rainforests and hidden valleys of the interior, and the razor-sharp ridges eroded by eons of wind and weather.

There’s more. How about a dramatic perspective on world renowned surfing spots such as Sunset Beach, Pipeline and Waimea Bay? Or an aerial view of infamous Kolekole Pass, where Japanese warplanes sped on their way to attack Pearl Harbor?  Combine your helicopter tour with an ocean adventure, such as a sunset dinner cruise or a submarine dive off Waikiki, and save up to $50 per couple. Come fly with Makani Kai Helicopters and enjoy vivid vacation memories that will last a lifetime.
