What You'll Get
Narwhals are the pilots of the sea, ferrying gilled breathers on their backs and using their tusks as hangers for oversized carry-on baggage. Admire elegant sea vessels from above with today’s Groupon: for $75, you get a 30-minute Romantic Valentine's Seaplane Tour (a $150 value) from Miami Seaplane Tours in Key Biscayne. This Groupon does not have to be used on Valentine's Day, but you must book your flight by March 14th.
The Cessna 172 Seahawk guides lovebirds and smitten sapiens alike over the sweeping vistas of Miami and South Beach. Enjoy the sensational perspective of crystal-clear waters and dazzling Miami high-rises toasting their mutual affection with cloud champagne. As an experienced pilot arcs the metal bird through the sky, admire the sun-kissed glint in the eyes of your significant other or the cerulean Atlantic below, keeping peepers peeled for lolling manatees on their first date, punch-drunk prose-pouring pelicans, and merman tollbooth operators crafting chocolate tokens for their mesmerized maidens. Photo-ops abound as the sprawling cityscape below takes on new airborne beauty during this winged treat for infatuated tourists and enamored locals alike.
Reviews
Hello Miami featured Miami Seaplane Tours, and TripAdvisors give it a perfect average of five owl eyes:
- One distinct advantage of seaplanes over other aerial craft is their ability to cruise low, offering intimate sights of the abundant ocean life in the crystal clear waters offshore South Florida. – Ginny Nadolny, Hello Miami
- My husband & I decided to do the 1/2hr city tour with Miami Seaplanes. We had a great experience from start to finish! The take off & landing were very smooth. The views were amazing! The customer service was excellent! We saw a manatee, flew around south beach, by the city skyscrapers & around many of the rich & famous peoples [sic] houses! – Tivers7, TripAdvisor

About Miami Seaplane Tours
Miami’s azure beaches and kaleidoscopic cityscapes beckon eyes downward as Miami Seaplane Tours’ DeHavilland Beaver skirts across the horizon. With more than 20 years of experience, pilot flies jet-setting adventurers above Miami in the renovated interior of their DeHavilland Beaver. The aerodynamically enhanced craft now offers three distinct seaplane tours, ranging in length from 15 minutes to one hour. Passengers soak in panoramic views of downtown Miami’s hotels, beaches, and mansions, or sail over the soiree of Fort Lauderdale. Tours can also glide north of the city, all the while dodging clouds and errant beach frisbees thrown by Dan Marino.
