Helicopter Transfer Costa Navarino to Kalamata

The transfer serving Costa Navarino and Kalamata covers only a short distance of around 26 nautical miles, a passage across the Messenian countryside of the southern Peloponnese best flown by helicopter. A machine such as the Airbus H130, with its quiet single-turbine engine and panoramic cabin, offers a swift and scenic way to bridge the resort of Costa Navarino and the regional gateway at Kalamata. Rising over olive groves, vineyards and the blue sweep of the Ionian coast, passengers enjoy sweeping views of the Messenian landscape before a gentle descent, the flight lasting only around a quarter of an hour and sparing travellers a longer journey by winding road. The fixed-wing gateway for the region is Kalamata International Airport, which receives private aircraft from across Europe before guests continue by helicopter to the resort. Kalamata itself, the second city of the Peloponnese, is known for its harbour, its celebrated olives and its position at the foot of the Taygetus mountains. Costa Navarino, set along the unspoilt coast of Messenia, is celebrated for its golf, its spa and its proximity to the ancient sites of Pylos and the Palace of Nestor. The route suits guests arriving for a stay on the Messenian coast, whether for golf, wellness or the archaeology of the region. The helicopter’s ability to fly directly and to land close to the resort makes it particularly valuable where roads are slow and the countryside broad. For travellers bound for Costa Navarino, the short aerial transfer offers both speed and a memorable first view of the southern Peloponnese laid out beneath them.
