This serene departure point is free from the stress and hustle of traditional airports. Here, you'll check in 1 hour prior to departure, giving you plenty of time to unwind and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the harbour before your flight. As you board the seaplane, you'll instantly sense the intimate and comfortable atmosphere of small aircraft travel—an ideal way to begin your unforgettable journey to Seattle. Once aboard, your pilot will provide a safety briefing, ensuring you're fully prepared for your flight. Note: All travelers need a valid passport.

These views are both breathtaking and intimate, providing you with a one-of-a-kind perspective of Vancouver. Fly over the vibrant city, framed by the beauty of nature, offering you a deep connection to this coastal paradise.

Your journey southward continues as you glide over the stunning Salish Sea, crossing the international border into the United States. Along the way, you’ll have the chance to take in views of the San Juan Islands, peaceful waters, and forested shores—giving you a rare, immersive view of the Pacific Northwest's natural beauty. The flight is an opportunity to connect with the rugged landscape as much as the cityscapes, offering a diverse experience that reflects the heart of both Canada and the U.S.

Your seaplane will land at Lake Union, one of Seattle’s most iconic waterfront areas, where the landscape is as authentic and immersive as the city itself. Nestled just a few minutes from downtown, Lake Union Seaplane Base offers stunning views of Seattle’s skyline, the Space Needle, and Gas Works Park. This spot is perfect for those who want to experience the city from the water—while taking in the peaceful ambiance that comes with landing on the lake. As you touch down, you’ll have an immediate connection to the city’s vibrant energy and rich history. Whether it's the hip Capitol Hill neighborhood, the buzzing Pike Place Market, or the scenic waterfront, Seattle offers a variety of authentic experiences to explore.

Now that you’ve arrived, the city is yours to discover. Spend time wandering through Seattle’s distinctive neighborhoods, where you’ll encounter diverse local cultures, breathtaking natural views, and some of the best cuisine on the West Coast. Explore Pike Place Market, where fresh local seafood and artisanal goods abound, or head to the Seattle Art Museum for a dose of culture. For those seeking a deeper connection to the natural world, take a trip to the Chihuly Garden and Glass, or venture out to the Mount Rainier National Park, just a short drive away, for a day in the wilderness. This journey isn’t just about getting from one place to another—it’s about creating lasting memories and moments of connection with the landscape, the people, and the unique experiences that both Vancouver and Seattle offer.
