The Cliffs of Etretat Helicopter Panoramic Flight

Your adventure begins at Deauville-Saint Gatien Airport, where you board the agile Écureuil H125 B3e helicopter for a 30-minute private flight over Normandy’s northern coastline. Lift off across the Seine Estuary, with Honfleur to your left and Le Havre in the distance, offering expansive views of open water, ports, and the rugged shoreline. Soon you’ll pass Port 2000, one of Le Havre’s major ports, before the coast opens into the dramatic Alabaster Coast.

As you approach Étretat, the landscape transforms: towering white cliffs rise from the sea, sculpted by wind and waves into majestic forms. Admire the Arche d’Aval, a natural arch beside the surf, and the needle-like Aiguille, soaring 55 meters above the water. These cliffs have inspired countless artists, including Impressionists, and served as a backdrop for Maurice Leblanc’s Arsène Lupin adventures.

This flight is more than sightseeing, it is an immersive encounter with nature’s artistry. From the sky, witness the contrast of rugged cliffs, shimmering seas, and chalky coastlines glowing in ever-changing light. The helicopter’s smooth ascent and the intimacy of a small group enrich every moment.

Whether you are drawn to landscapes, art, or aerial adventure, this journey offers unforgettable vistas and sensory delight, leaving lasting impressions of Normandy’s iconic coastline.
