Tour Highlights: Departure from Derby Airport: Your adventure begins from the historic town of Derby, where you'll lift off in your helicopter, flying over the vast Kimberley landscape and heading toward one of the most spectacular natural phenomena in the world. Derby Mudflats – Nature’s Canvas: Soar over the Derby mudflats, famous for the immense tidal movements—up to 14 metres! Watch the tidal patterns that shift the landscape and keep an eye out for saltwater crocodiles basking in the sun. Kimbolton & McLarty Ranges – Geological Marvels: Fly over these rugged and timeless ridgelines, painted in deep reds and ochres. These ancient formations tell the story of the Kimberley’s geological past, shaped by millions of years of natural forces. Talbot Bay & Horizontal Falls – The World’s Wildest Ride: Get ready for a breathtaking flyover of the Horizontal Falls. From above, see the incredible force of the tides as they rush through narrow sandstone gorges, creating the illusion of waterfalls flowing sideways—truly one of nature's most spectacular sights. Touchdown at the Houseboat & Enjoy Morning Tea: After taking in the incredible aerial views, land on the remote houseboat in Talbot Bay, and enjoy a delicious morning tea with a view! Prepare for the iconic powerboat ride through the Horizontal Falls, where you’ll feel the surge of water as you ride through the falls. Horizontal Falls Power Boat Cruise: Experience an exciting ride through the surging waters of Horizontal Falls aboard a custom-built powerboat—an unforgettable and iconic experience. Barramundi Lunch on the Pontoon: Refuel with a delicious freshly-cooked barramundi lunch served on a floating dining pontoon. Surrounded by dramatic cliffs and turquoise waters, this is the perfect spot to relax and take in the beauty of the Kimberley. Island Cruising & Creek Exploration: Take a leisurely cruise through the maze of secluded bays and hidden creek systems around Talbot Bay. Enjoy the serenity of this untouched coastline while spotting local wildlife and appreciating the natural beauty all around you. Marine Viewing & Shark Experience: Immerse yourself into the adventure with a unique opportunity to swim or snorkel in a marine viewing platform, where you can witness Tawny Nurse Sharks gliding beneath you. Feel free to take a swim with these incredible creatures in the separated shark-free enclosure; a safe and controlled environment (or watch from the viewing platform!). Return Flight to Derby: End your unforgettable journey with a scenic helicopter flight back to Derby, where you’ll see the Kimberley landscapes change one last time from the air. A perfect way to end a perfect day.
