After 20 years visiting the Outer Banks and Ocracoke Island Costal Helicopters gave us the opportunity to see the area from a different perspective. This was our first time in a helicopter. It was more like floating than flying. Larry knows all the sights to see and we had a great flight. Don’t miss the chance to call Larry or... More

My mom and I took my 5 year old nephew. We all loved it! Very informative and beautiful sights. Found out that Stephanie was from Pittsburgh just like us and she is an alumni of my university! More
