Blackpool Coast Tours

There’s something inescapably exhilarating about seeing the coast from the air. As your helicopter lifts off, the rooftops quickly give way to open sky and the captivating glint of the Irish Sea. In moments, the famous Blackpool Tower is in sight, rising above the sweep of the promenade — a landmark recognised around the world. Below, the Golden Mile curves along the shoreline, a ribbon of sand and sea.

Your 30-minute route takes you north along the coast, offering uninterrupted views over the beach, the open water, and the changing colours of the sea. The piers reach out into the waves, and on sunny days the sands seem to glow beneath you. Continuing towards Morecambe Bay, the scenery opens out even more — vast tidal flats, shifting channels of water, and the meeting point of sea, estuary and sky. From above, you can trace the curve of the bay and the way the light dances across the water.

On particularly clear days, you might even glimpse the southern Lake District fells rising in the distance, or the moorland ridges of the Forest of Bowland to the east — beautiful in their own right, and a reminder of just how much variety sits within reach of the coast.

With the helicopter’s wide windows, the view is yours to enjoy no matter where you’re seated. Your pilot will point out the sights as you go, and the steady pace gives you plenty of time to take it all in. From the start of your experience to its very end, it’s a blend of coastal drama and pure relaxation — a flight that’s both invigorating and posiitvely inspiring.

Whether it’s a gift, a new perspective on a familiar coastline, or simply a day out to remember, this is a chance to see Blackpool and the bay in a way few people ever do. You’ll land with a camera full of memories, and maybe a quiet urge to see it all again from the air.
