The owner of the helicopter contacted the US Coast Guard about 45 minutes after the aircraft was due back from a tour.
It has an electronic locator but no signals have been received.
The helicopter was carrying a pilot and six passengers, two believed to be children.
The Coast Guard says clouds and rain have lowered visibility to 6 kilometres... with winds blowing at 45 kilometres an hour.
