Chopper spotting at Airlie Beach / Shute Harbour

Among a variety of fixed-wing aircraft based at Shute Harbour / Whitsunday Airport is a modest fleet of helicopters, and a helicopter sales and training centre.
 
Arguably the most prominent company is Helibiz, reportedly Australia’s authorised Robinson Dealer and Service Centre since 1997, and specialise in the sales of new and pre-owned helicopters, aswell as training and servicing.   
 
 
 





 
Another notable helicopter company based at Whitsunday Airport is HeliTaxi, and not only provide a range of charter and transfer options from the aerodrome, but from Abell Point Heliport at Abell Point Marina. 
 
Additionally, transfers to and from Proserpine Airport to meet RPT and charter services are also available.
