GIVING BACK TO THE ISLANDS WE FLY OVER: MAUNA LOA HELICOPTER TOURS’ ANNUAL BEACH CLEAN-UP

At Mauna Loa Helicopter Tours, we believe our kuleana (responsibility) extends beyond providing the best private helicopter tours in Hawaii. We are privileged to showcase Hawaii’s stunning coastlines, waterfalls, and volcanic landscapes to visitors from around the world, and we are committed to preserving these islands’ beauty for generations to come.
On July 18th, 2025, our Mauna Loa Helicopter Tours team came together for our annual beach clean-up at Kohanaiki Beach on the Big Island. In three hours, we proudly removed 312 pounds of ʻōpala (trash) from the shoreline we fly over daily during our Coastline tour.
Why We Clean Up Beaches We Fly Over
Every day, our tours provide guests with a unique perspective of Hawaii. We see firsthand how precious and fragile these environments are, and we believe that protecting them is part of our mission.
By participating in community clean-ups, Mauna Loa Helicopters ensures that the breathtaking views you experience on our tours remain pristine and unspoiled. It’s our way of giving back to the’ āina (land) that gives so much to us and the guests who join us for unforgettable flights in Hawaii.
A Commitment to Community and the Environment
Whether you’re flying over the lush rainforests near Hilo or exploring the rugged coastlines of Kona on one of our helicopter tours, you can feel confident knowing that Mauan Loa Helicopters is committed to sustainability and community stewardship.
We proudly integrate this commitment into every aspect of our operation, ensuring that your tour with us is not only a once-in-a-lifetime adventure but also a part of a larger effort to protect Hawaii’s beauty.
