Gourmet Lunch at Jonah’s by Seaplane from Sydney




  • Jonah’s is set upon the clifftop overlooking Whale Beach, truly one of Sydney’s most spectacular outlooks. Fly over Sydney’s famous Northern Beaches, including Manly, Dee Why Newport and on to Palm Beach on the return flight you will soak up the sights of Sydney Harbour.

    Perched high on the edge of a cliff, enjoying dramatic views of Whale Beach and the sprawling Pacific Ocean, Jonah’s at Palm Beach is one of Australia’s most prestigious ocean retreats. Something of a Sydney institution, Jonah’s salubrious guest list has included Laurence Olivier, Anthony Hopkins, Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall.

    Departing Sydney Harbour late morning your seaplane flight tracks north past Sydney’s spectacular northern beaches before touching down in the expansive waterway of Pittwater. Jonah’s courtesy vehicle will meet you at the dock and transfer you the short distance to the restaurant.

    Jonah’s offers Modern Australian cuisine under the direction of award-winning chef George Francisco. George’s style of cooking has a significant French influence, but it is his passion for finding and using the best and freshest local produce that will ensure Jonah’s diners are as impressed about the food as they are about the restaurant’s 180 degree views of the Pacific Ocean.
