Private helicopter flight in St. Petersburg, Florida




Description
Private helicopter flight in St. Petersburg – Flight over the Gulf of Mexico
Board this private helicopter flight departing from St. Petersburg, Florida, which offers an approximately 30-minute overflight above Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico coastline. After check-in at the boarding area, the pilot presents the flight sequence and safety instructions before boarding the helicopter.
Takeoff quickly reaches downtown St. Pete, then the helicopter heads toward the coast. The route includes overflights of Fort De Soto Park, Egmont Key, and Anna Maria Island, areas known for their beaches, shallow waters, and preserved natural environment. The flight is fully private; you will be the only passengers on board for a personalized experience.
Aerial discovery of Tampa Bay and the Sunshine Skyway Bridge
The second part of the flight highlights the coastal scenery and major regional infrastructure. The helicopter follows the bay to provide a clear view of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge, the iconic structure connecting St. Petersburg to Bradenton over Tampa Bay. Seen from the air, the bridge reveals its full scale and sweeping alignment above the water.
The pilot then continues flying over the islands and natural areas where seabirds are frequently spotted and, depending on conditions, marine life can sometimes be seen near the surface. Throughout the flight, the pilot acts as a knowledgeable guide, explaining the sites observed and the layout of Florida’s coastline.
