About this tour
A 6-hour aerial tour departing from Broome that loops over Western Australia's Kimberley coastline, taking in the Horizontal Falls, King Sound, Buccaneer Archipelago, Cape Leveque and the Lacepede Islands. You'll land at Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm for breakfast or barramundi lunch, swim in the resort pool, and hear the pilot's commentary on what unfolds below. The tidal nature of the Falls means timing varies daily.

What to expect
You'll board a small aircraft early morning for a scenic flight hugging the coastline. The Horizontal Falls—a tidal phenomenon—dominate the viewing, along with turquoise waters, rocky islands and remote headlands. After roughly an hour aloft, you'll touch down at Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm on the coast. Here you'll eat a proper meal drawing from local seafood and indigenous ingredients, take a dip in the infinity pool, and browse pearl jewellery if you wish. The return flight retraces different angles of the same landscape. Expect a full day of travel rather than passive sightseeing.
Good to know
The Horizontal Falls shift dramatically with tides, so optimal flight times change daily—confirm dates ahead. Weight limit is 120kg per passenger. Light aircraft mean noise and movement; those with heart conditions should reconsider. Infants sit on laps. A fuel levy currently applies to all bookings.
