Blast off to Undine Cay for one of the most brag-worthy experiences in Tropical North Queensland.

Lift-off rockstar style from Silky Oaks’ own helipad to soak in breathtaking aerial views extending from the tropical rainforest cloaked coastline and across the azure waters of the Coral Sea before an exhilarating touchdown on dazzling Undine Cay, a jewel in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef.

1 Undine Cay
2 Undine Cay

Spend hours with silky white sand between your toes, sunbathing and snorkelling in the gin-clear waters abundant in marine life. Indulge in a gourmet picnic hamper complete with sparkling wine as you drip-dry in the balmy tropical air and toast the view and the one (or ones!) you love.

Minimum 2 passengers, maximum 6 passengers based on weight and heli aircraft availability. Tour only available 1 April – 31 August. Please note, Undine Cay is a public sand cay and as such cannot be reserved. On the rare occasion it is occupied the helicopter will not be permitted to land and will continue on an extended reef scenic flight back to Silky Oaks Lodge (total flying time 45 minutes). Passengers will be able to keep their picnic lunch and Nautilus Aviation’s reservations team will advise and assist with any refunds applicable. Unfortunately, being a coastal location, snorkelling isn’t possible at this site.
