The Seaplane Pilots Association is pleased to announce the next SPAA Pilot Skills Camp at beautiful Port Macquarie, commencing Friday 30 October 2026.

These weekends are always great fun, combining a unique learning program with fantastic presentations, flying activities and plenty of social interaction with fellow seaplane enthusiasts.

We strongly recommend booking your accommodation now, as the Edgewater Holiday Park books out quickly. The good news is that no payment is required until one week before arrival.

Your event registration and payment will also not be due until one week before the event and will be fully refundable should you be unable to attend for a valid reason.

More details, including the program and registration information, will be released shortly.

We look forward to seeing you at Port Macquarie.
