The Barcelona Coast & Montserrat Tour is a private helicopter charter linking the city's shoreline with the Montserrat mountain range in a single flight. Chartered exclusively for up to three passengers at €1,295 per helicopter, it covers about 35 minutes in the air — the longest coastal route on offer — ending with a close pass over Montserrat's cliffside monastery.

What you'll see

  1. Take-off

    The private charter lifts off from the Port heliport for a 35-minute route combining Barcelona's coast with the Montserrat mountains.

  2. Columbus Monument

    The flight opens over the Columbus Monument, where La Rambla reaches the harbor.

  3. World Trade Center

    The World Trade Center Barcelona's crescent building sits below on its own pier.

  4. Port of Barcelona

    The working docks of the Port of Barcelona spread out along the shoreline.

  5. Maremagnum

    Maremagnum, the shopping and entertainment complex built over the old port basin, passes underneath.

  6. Torre Glòries

    Torre Glòries stands out against the Eixample's grid as the helicopter turns inland.

  7. Barcelona's beaches

    The city's beachfront runs along the coast, giving a last sea view before the route heads to Montserrat.

  8. Besós river

    The Besós river marks the turning point where the flight leaves the coast for the interior.

  9. Montcada i Reixac, Sant Cugat, Rubí, Olesa, Esparreguera

    The helicopter crosses the towns of Montcada i Reixac, Sant Cugat del Vallès, Rubí, Olesa de Montserrat and Esparreguera on the way toward the mountain.

  10. Montserrat massif & monastery

    The multi-peaked Montserrat massif rises ahead, with the Benedictine monastery built into its rock face below.

  11. Landing

    The helicopter retraces its route back to the Port heliport for landing.

What's included

  • Full private use of a Robinson R44 for up to 3 passengers — no shared seats
  • Two landscapes in one flight: Barcelona's coastline, then the Montserrat massif
  • A route over the Columbus Monument, World Trade Center, Port of Barcelona, Maremagnum, Torre Glòries, the city beaches, several inland towns, and Montserrat itself
  • Noise-cancelling headsets, a pilot safety briefing before boarding, and terminal check-in for your group
  • Roughly 35 minutes airborne — among the longest flight times of any route on the site

Good to know before you fly

  • Every passenger needs valid photo ID, checked at the terminal 20 minutes before departure
  • Flag passenger weights ahead of time for a private charter (110kg standard per seat, 130kg with a second seat booked) so we can plan the load
  • This route crosses inland toward the mountains, so it's especially weather-sensitive — your slot is confirmed the day before
  • It's a longer flight, so dress warmly if flying in cooler months; the cabin can feel cooler at altitude

More on check-in and the terminal: see our heliport guide. Flights affected by weather follow our cancellation policy.

Frequently asked questions

Can I see the Montserrat monastery up close on this route?

Yes — the flight passes close to the Benedictine monastery built into the mountain's serrated rock face before heading back to Barcelona.

How long does the whole Coast & Montserrat Tour take?

About 35 minutes in the air, with a total experience of around 60 minutes including check-in and briefing.

Do we fly over both the coast and the mountains on the same flight?

Yes — the route opens along Barcelona's coastline and beaches before turning inland toward Montserrat.

Is this the same route as the Sky & Montserrat Tour?

No — this one opens over the coastline; the Sky & Montserrat Tour covers the city skyline (Sagrada Família, Camp Nou) before reaching Montserrat instead.

What's the €1,295 price based on?

It's priced per helicopter for up to 3 passengers, not per seat — the total stays the same whether 1, 2 or 3 of you fly.

Which towns do we pass on the way to Montserrat?

Montcada i Reixac, Sant Cugat del Vallès, Rubí, Olesa de Montserrat and Esparreguera, before the massif comes into view.

Is this a good choice for a special occasion?

It's one of the most popular routes for anniversaries and milestone celebrations, given the private cabin and the scenic length of the flight.
