Lakes Entrance Helicopters and Venture Out Australia have partnered to offer the most unique adventure experience in Gippsland – HeliSUP the Gippsland Lakes.

Fly high above the spectacular lake system – enjoy a birds-eye view of the islands and iconic Entrance. Land near the Ninety Mile Beach, ready for Stand Up Paddle boarding. Along with your guide, glide back to Lakes Entrance via the Entrance.

A 3-hour once in a life-time experience. Expected time on the water is approximately 2-hours. Skills instruction included, so no previous Stand Up Paddle boarding experience required, however, the paddle distance is approximately 5 kms so some level of fitness is required.
