The helicopter settles into a low hover over coastal scrub, wind and spray flirting with the cabin as the peninsula unrolls beneath you — cliffs, creeks and the neat patchwork of farmland giving way to the broad sweep of Bass Strait. In less than an hour you land on a private strip near St Andrews Beach Brewery, step out onto sun-warmed grass and follow the hum of conversation to a shaded beer garden where pints and a pub lunch await.

St Andrews Beach Brewery occupies ground once used for racehorse training, including paddocks associated with champion Makybe Diva, and sits on coastal dunes formed by Pleistocene sands. The peninsula’s geology produces dramatic cliffs and sheltered bays, while a strong local brewing culture favors bold lagers and pale ales made from Victorian malts and regional hops.
Expect a 35-minute scenic flight each way (round-trip included in the 4-hour program), a guided tasting paddle of core beers, and a pub-style lunch of fish and chips, sandwiches or brisket. The experience is social but unhurried — good for couples and small groups who want a relaxed afternoon with memorable views.
Practical notes: bring a camera and a light windlayer for landings and coastal breezes; wear sturdy shoes if you plan to explore dunes and short walking tracks; carry ID for alcohol service. Flights are weather dependent and weight limits are enforced for safety, so confirm passenger details in advance. Book mid-afternoon for softer light and calmer sea breezes; mornings can be cooler and windier.
The scenic helicopter segment is approximately 35 minutes each way, built into a four-hour round-trip experience including tasting and lunch.
Guests of all ages can participate, but alcohol service requires valid ID for those over 18; confirm any child seating with the operator.
Flights are weather dependent; the operator will cancel for safety and refund if you cancel at least 24 hours prior, or if the flight is called off due to conditions.
