      Stretching 600 kilometres along the western edge of the South Island, the West Coast is a region of contrasting features - high snow-capped mountains, towering rainforests, lowland river valleys, dramatic coastlines, majestic glaciers, surging rivers and pristine lakes. This is where natural heritage is reserved especially for you in five National Parks and a World Heritage area.

Simply the best way to capture any or all of these features is by Helicopter. Anderson Helicopters can offer the flight of a life time in their state of the art machines where you will fly in comfort and gain the best possible views through perfect seating configuration.

Anderson Helicopters are based at Hokitika Airport, Hokitika. Hokitika is famous for its Pounamu (Jade) and also its Wildfoods Festival. Accommodation ranges from camping Grounds to Luxury Lodges. Hokitika is 30 minutes South of Greymouth and 3 hours drive from Christchurch.

Anderson Helicopters operate the West Coast's most modern helicopter, a Eurocopter AS350B2 Squirrel as the fleet flagship. This helicopter is perfect for sightseeing and getting you to those remote spots in the Southern Alps. Able to seat up to Six Passengers, the Squirrel has an exceptional view from all seats and a superb ride with leather seating and premium sound installed in our aircraft. Also available is our Bell Jetranger with seating for Four Passengers. The Bell Jetranger is a well known and reliable helicopter, it is also known for being the safest aircraft ever built.
