This shared Hilo helicopter follows the Hamakua Coast: about 60 minutes in the air with doors on, from US$406 per person, for up to six passengers in forward-facing seats. After lift-off you work coastal waterfalls and cliffs, then Waipiʻo Valley and Waimanu Valley, before returning to Hilo. There is no intermediate landing and no valley-floor stop. Meet at the green-roof Commuter Terminal, 2220 Kekuanaoa Street, Hilo; no hotel pickup. Park in the paved lot in front of the office, not the gravel cellular lot. Arrive 45 minutes before departure for check-in, weighing, and a safety briefing — follow any earlier time on your confirmation. Bring photo ID. An extra seat may be required from 113 kg (250 lbs), or when two people together exceed about 191 kg (420 lbs). Ages 2 and up. Year-round when weather allows. Live times and prices show when you book. Choose this when Hamakua cliffs and the Waipiʻo–Waimanu pair are the point. Choose the Volcanoes National Park Experience when lava fields and crater country matter more.
