Every Riviera helicopter leg, in one place.
Nice, Cannes, Saint-Tropez, Monaco and Antibes sit within twenty flying minutes of each other — and up to two and a half hours apart on the A8 in August. Below is each sector we source on the Côte d’Azur, with indicative timings, prices on request and the planning page behind it.
Coastal sectors and flight times
The A8 equivalent takes 60+ minutes in season. Driver waiting for the Croisette or your mooring.
LFMN into La Môle, then a tender to Pampelonne Bay or a car to Byblos and Cheval Blanc.
The Festival, Grand Prix and Yacht Show leg. Fontvieille arrival, minutes from the Port Hercule berths.
Two hours or more by road between June and September — fifteen minutes over the Estérel.
The full length of the Riviera without touching the autoroute.
The classic shuttle: seven minutes airside-to-Fontvieille, several rotations an hour in season.
Port Vauban, Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc and the Cap villas — the shortest leg on the coast.
The return leg, planned backwards from your jet slot or airline departure at Terminal 2.
Westbound half of the shuttle — Fontvieille to Mandelieu without the A8.
La Môle or a Pampelonne deck back to LFMN, instead of two hours around the gulf.
Price on request. Availability, season and repositioning decide the quote, and a licensed operator quotes every mission individually.
The five Côte d’Azur bases
The inbound gateway. Jets and airline arrivals hand off airside to the helicopter terminal, so the coast opens within minutes of landing.
Mid-coast base for the Festival, TFWA, Lions and yacht season. Five to seven minutes from Nice, fifteen from Saint-Tropez.
The hardest place on the Riviera to reach by road in August, and the easiest by air. Yacht tenders and drivers arranged on arrival.
Grand Prix and Yacht Show demand peaks here. Slot pressure is real — brief us early and we hold aircraft on the corridor.
Billionaires’ Quay, Cap d’Antibes villas and Eden-Roc. Landing on a certified yacht helideck is possible where the deck allows.

One brief goes to the operators that actually hold aircraft on this coast. You compare like-for-like proposals with documentation attached, not a phone number and a promise.
