Brilliant from start to finish. Got the ferry from Circular Quay to Rose Bay and it is a couple of minutes walk to the Seaplane terminal. Quickly checked in and had time to browse their excellent little museum, which covers the history of Rose Bay and the Empire flying boats. Then watched our 'plane arrive and taxi in before going down onto the jetty to board - pilot offered to take photos of us as well! Lovely smooth taxi out and take off, a really novel experience then turned and headed down over the northern beaches before swining back in over Sydney harbour for spectacular views of the Bridge and Opera House before heading back to Rose Bay for a really smooth landing (fun racing one of the ferries!). Finished off with a glass of champagne while we watched the next flight board and depart. Only real criticism is that the pilot's commentary was virtually inaudible - need to increase the volume of provide headsets.
If you've got a spare morning in Sydney, get over to Rose Bay for a seaplane flight. Simple as that. It is a fantastic thing to do. Sydney is a beautiful city but it is stunning from the air. We went all the way up to the northern beaches and had a really interesting commentary from the pilot. It's not outrageously expensive either. A very well run outfit. Highly, highly recommended.
