Story

From Passion to Flight

Miami Seaplane Tours began its journey in 1995 as Fun Flight Miami, born from the passion of a dedicated seaplane pilot and a single Ultralight aircraft. Located in the picturesque Key Biscayne, the company initially focused on training Ultralight enthusiasts. By 2000, growing customer demand inspired us to expand our offerings to include aerial tours of Miami's most iconic landmarks. As the popularity of our tours soared, we transitioned to Miami Seaplane Tours, enhancing our fleet to accommodate more passengers and provide a more inclusive experience. Today, we continue to share the magic of flight with adventurers from around the world, offering a unique perspective of Miami's stunning landscapes.
