Fly Heli offers visitors an aerial view of St. Augustine and its spectacular coast. Fly Heli operates helicopter sightseeing tours in Chicago, Cleveland, and Put in Bay, Ohio. In 2024, they purchased First City Helicopters and began operating the only scenic helicopter flights in the Ancient City.

Their bright yellow helicopter, affectionately named "Bee" lifts off at the Northeast Florida Regional Airport. Fly Heli offers several tours—custom tours may be arranged in advance. 

The shortest tour, the Porpoise Point Tour, offers 10 miles of flight over Castle Otttis, the Great Cross, Vilano Beach, and Porpoise Point. 

The most popular tour, the St. Augustine Old City Tour, has 23 miles of flight over Castle Otttis, the Great Cross, Anastasia State Park, the St. Augustine Lighthouse, St. Augustine Pier, Matanzas Bay, the Bridge of Lions, and favorite spots in the historic downtown, including the Bridge of Lions, Flagler College, and Castillo de San Marcos.

The St. Augustine Shoreline Tour, with 30 miles of flight, includes everything on the Old City Tour, plus a flight over the St. Augustine shoreline, Matanzas River, and Intracoastal Waterway. This tour offers beautiful osprey-like views of St. Augustine and can include glimpses of marine wildlife along the shore and on the river.

Those who love to fly and want to see all of St. Augustine by air opt for the Grand St. Augustine Tour, which adds miles over the entire length of Anastasia Island, with views of the Matanzas Inlet Bridge and Fort Matanzas. 

Fly Heli's bird's eye tours of St. Augustine range from 10 miles to more than 40, and prices will vary accordingly. All ages are welcome.

Flights can be scheduled for Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. Simply go to their website and choose your preferred flight, day, and time.
