Paradise Seaplanes is closed

After many years of sharing unforgettable adventure flights over the Sunshine Coast, we have made the difficult decision to permanently close Paradise Seaplanes.

From our base on the Maroochy River, we had the privilege of taking thousands of passengers aloft in our distinctive Wilga 80 warbird seaplane — the only one of its kind operating in Australia. Whether it was a short flight over Mooloolaba, a longer recon to Noosa, or a doors-off experience with the wind in your hair, we loved creating those lifelong memories with you.

Thank you to every passenger, family, and friend who trusted us with their adventure. Your five-star reviews, TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice recognition, and enthusiastic feedback meant the world to us. We are deeply grateful for the support of the Sunshine Coast community and the many visitors who made the trip to fly with us.

Paradise Seaplanes is no longer operating. No flights are available, and we are unable to accept new bookings or honour future reservations.

For any outstanding matters related to past flights or gift vouchers, please refer to any previous correspondence.

Thank you for the memories. We hope the Sunshine Coast continues to inspire you — from the air or from the ground.

Warm regards,
The Paradise Seaplanes Team
