One of the best ways to experience Mauritius is from above, so you can appreciate the beauty of the island from a different perspective! Consider including a Mauritius helicopter tour on your itinerary. This will bring you over Mauritian mountains, coastlines, waterfalls, and cities to discover iconic destinations like Laville on Adventure Park, Port Louis, and Black River.
Helicopter tours are perfect for couples who want a more enjoyable romantic getaway in Mauritius. You will be given enough time to make the most of every stop, typically 1 to 1.5 hours. To make the most of the experience, make sure you have your camera or use your smartphone to capture one-of-a-kind sights and preserve your memories.
That said, taking pictures during a helicopter tour can be challenging, especially while you’re in the skies. So, read on for photography tips you can apply during your Mauritius helicopter tour.
Have the right gear
If you prefer using a DSLR camera, make sure it’s equipped with a reliable telephoto lens with 70 mm to 200 mm focal length. This should help you take close-ups from above. On the other hand, a panoramic zoom lens with a 24 mm to 70 mm focal length may serve you better when flying over vast landscapes, such as forests and the ocean.
Adjust the camera settings before you go.
You want to fully take in your surroundings during your helicopter tour while taking photos. To ensure that you don’t miss anything, change your camera’s settings before you fly. Choose shutter speeds of 1/500 or 1/1000 to minimise blurring, which can be caused by the helicopter’s vibration. Additionally, play around with the exposure and aperture settings to suit the amount of natural light available.
Plan your shots
Do your homework before your Mauritius helicopter tour. Look up the places in the itinerary to get inspired and know what to expect so you know the perfect time to take a photo. Additionally, don’t be shy to ask your tour guide or pilot. They may be able to suggest the best moments to get a photo of a specific place at the best angle.
