In addition to our sea base at Tidewater Yacht Marina in Portsmouth, VA, Coastal Seaplanes is pleased to offer water and airport air services to many locations and communities on the Eastern Virginia and upper North Carolina coast as well as surrounding areas, including Chesapeake Bay and the Outer Banks. Contact us to find out more!

Coastal Seaplanes operates the mighty Cessna 206, known for its safety and reliability in the seaplane world. Our aircraft is configured with one pilot seat and three (3) passenger seats in order to accommodate luggage and cargo.

Coastal Seaplanes does not offer single-seat fares for on-demand charters; the entire aircraft is at your service for the duration of your charter.

As for tours, there is a two-seat minimum for all tours. Once that minimum has been met, the tour will run, and the third seat may be booked by an additional member in your party, or may be booked by another party, weight permitting. Additionally, we do offer private tours where the entire aircraft is all yours- contact us for more information!

The Coastal Seaplanes Cessna 206 is a workhorse of an aircraft with an impressive useful load. However, all passengers will be weighed at the time of check-in to ensure compliance with Federal Aviation Regulations and for safety purposes. Please contact us with your charter request to discuss the details of your trip so we can decide how to best serve you.
