Pearls, Colours & Coastlines

Prepare to be amazed by the striking contrasts of the Kimberley’s natural palette on the 30-minute Colours of Broome scenic flight, which soars over Cable Beach and up to Willie Creek. You’ll witness iconic sights like Gantheaume Point, Simpsons Beach, Dampier Creek, and the full stretch of Cable Beach’s 22 kilometres of gleaming white sand. Extend the adventure to a 45- or 60-minute flight to explore north of Willie Creek, and more of the breathtaking coastline.

For those seeking a tour that combines the views with an insight into Broome’s historic pearling industry, the Pearls and Coast flight includes a landing at Willie Creek Pearl Farm. There, you’ll enjoy a guided tour of the multiaward-winning pearl farm, a relaxing boat cruise through the vivid waters of the creek and even experience a live pearl harvest!

Beyond Broome

Fly south over Roebuck Bay to the awardwinning Eco Beach Resort for lunch, beachfront walks, sea kayaking, red cliff exploration, or kick back poolside with panoramic ocean views. Also south of Broome, fly over the vast Roebuck Plains to the Edgar Ranges, known for their scenic beauty, cliffs and towering buttes, which are a spectacular highlight that very few get to visit.

In Derby, the 30-Minute Derby Discoverer tour offers a bird’s-eye view of the region’s intricate tidal flats and mangroves, where saltwater crocodiles roam and the dramatic tides of King Sound leave intricate patterns in the mudflats below.

The Ultimate Frontier: Horizontal Falls & Montgomery Reef

A must-see for any adventurer, the Horizontal Falls Discoverer tour takes you on a scenic flight over the world-renowned Horizontal Falls, followed by lunch onboard a luxury houseboat and an exciting boat cruise through the falls. Cruise untouched bays and ancient creek systems before returning with memories that will last a lifetime. Extend your experience to soar over the incredibly unique Montgomery Reef, where the tide creates waterfalls that cascade before your eyes. Flyover-only flights are also available if you’re looking for a shorter adventure.
