Option 1: Reef Restaurant at Terrigal - Central Coast

This package is very much about the journey as well as the destination...

Departing Sydney Airport we take off to the north, flying over the Harbour & spectacular Northern Beaches we track towards Broken Bay and the Central Coast. On landing at Erina, the Reef's private transfer vehicle will be waiting for the brief drive to the restaurant at Terrigal... Seafood is the star of the show here... The menu is clever without being showy - it is innovative, whilst still maintaining accessibility and simplicity. Dishes such as the salt and pepper squid and local black mussels in Provencal sauce are excellent examples of this.

The Reef Restaurant is what everyone looks for in a venue - spectacular views, great service, sublime food and a relaxed atmosphere...

(Pilots note: Good all round venue/ Ideal romantic escape with top shelf food & service! Restaurant has also won many awards for excellence).

Option 4: The Settlers Arms, St Albans - Hawkesbury River

Flying via the Harbour and spectacular Pittwater, we track inland before landing at one of Australia's oldest pubs, The Settler's Arms Inn.

The Inn nestles alongside the Macdonald River within the tiny village of St. Albans in the heart of the Macdonald Valley.

Built by convict labour with hewn sandstone in 1836 and surrounded by mountains, the two-storey sandstone building has been largely unaltered and is full of genuine charm. Located approximately 30-minutes flight time to the north west of Sydney, St Albans is not so much a town as a fascinating historic relic... Lunch from the Settler's Arms is an excellent a la carte menu.

(Pilots note: Classic Australiana bush venue).

Option 4: The Settlers Arms, St Albans - Hawkesbury River

Departing Sydney Airport, we fly south over Cronulla... Passing The Royal National Park, we continue to track South West towards Bowral in the Southern Highlands...

Landing around 40 minutes after our departure, Centennial Vineyards Restaurant offers breathtaking views of the sprawling vineyards and is an ideal setting to enjoy a relaxed lunch in the country with amazing food and fine wine.

On balmy summer days, the restaurant's French doors open onto the spacious Australian veranda to provide a unique alfresco dining experience. In winter, the cosy and rustic appeal of the restaurant is enhanced by the enormous fireplace.

Centennial Vineyards Restaurant owners, Robin and Mandy Murray, have created a wonderful dining experience which makes the most of the beautifully appointed room and stunning vineyard views. To ensure there is something on the menu for everyone, Robin's cuisine is cleverly balanced between contemporary and bistro-style. Freshly picked Cuttaway Creek raspberries and the restaurant's home grown seasonal herbs contribute to the local produce fare.
