​Spring is in the Air at OBX Airplanes

​OBX Airplanes is excited that Spring is right around the corner. Today is March 1 st and that means that we are only nine days from springing our clocks forward and just nineteen days from the Spring Solstice and the official start of Spring!

Now, we’ve been on the Outer Banks for a long time and know that March can bring some chilly, wet, windy weather but we also know that we will have some beautiful
weather to look forward to. March is a month of transition and contrast. One day will be cold and rainy, the next the birds will be singing, sun shining, trees and flowers blooming (many already have begun to do so).

This is an exciting time on the Outer Banks. We know that the dark of winter is behind us and the sunshine of spring and summer is ahead. With the daylight savings time adjustment approaching, we will soon have plenty of time to take advantage of the beautiful weather that is coming our way.

With this change of season, we will soon be welcoming more and more visitors to our beautiful beaches. First comes Spring Break, then Easter, Memorial Day, and before you know it we’ll be watching fireworks on the Fourth of July!

OBX Airplanes would like to remind you that we are here to provide fun and adventurous ways for visitors and residents alike to enjoy the beauty of the Outer Banks during this Spring Season. This is the perfect time of year to take to the skies above the waters and sands of the picturesque coastline of North Carolina.

We offer a variety of Air Tours that are perfect for anyone looking for something different, exciting and adventurous to do on their vacation. Air Tours over the Outer Banks OBX Airplanes has a fleet of Cessna Aircraft that is ideal for providing Air Tours over the Outer Banks.

The planes can accommodate up to three passengers and have panoramic windows and high wings that allow for the best view of the landscape and seascape. People are usually surprised to learn just how affordable our Air Tours are. Our Cessna flights start at just $45, and that’s for the plane, not per person! You can take off from Dare County Airport with one of our experienced certified pilots with two of your friends or family members for only $15 a person!

We offer a Discovery Flight for only $69 per plane (with a three-passenger capacity) that will take you over the Albermarle Sound to the Wright Brothers’ Monument and then south over the ocean to Jockey’s Ridge.

Next is our $99 Tour that begins like the Discovery Flight but continues south from Jockey’s Ridge to Jennette’s Pier, then west over the causeway and Roanoke Sound, and over Downtown Manteo before returning to Dare County Airport for landing.

Our Inlet Tour is will take you even farther south to see Bodie Island Lighthouse and breathtaking views of Oregon Inlet. Our Custom Air Tour is one of the best ways to see the Outer Banks. You choose where to fly! North towards Duck or South towards Oregon Inlet. There are so many sights to see on the Outer Banks that you can’t go wrong either way.

The most beautiful times of day on the Outer Banks are at sunrise and at sunset. The clouds look like they are catching fire and the ocean and sounds turn to liquid gold. Some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets we have ever seen have been here on the Outer Banks. What could be better than taking a walk on the beach as the sun is rising over the Atlantic Ocean?

How about flying high above as the sun breaks over the horizon? We offer sunrise and sunset tours and we promise to show you a view that you will not soon forget! Spring is in the air, so call OBX Airplanes to book your next Outer Banks adventure!
