Take off from Jandakot, heading for the mouth of the swan river and the Fremantle port, Western Australia's largest and busiest cargo port, plus a Historic site.   

We then head up the coast passing the swan river snaking its way towards the Perth CBD.  We also overfly the coastal Perth suburbs, with their affluent homes and interesting architecture.  On the left side of the aircraft you can see Rottnest island.  We pass various man-made marina’s as we fly up the coast.  

After passing the CBD, the towns become scattered, we pass towns like Lancelin, Jurien bay, Cervantes, Dongara which are all fishing towns, and also tourism destinations, including the Pinnacles at Cervantes.  

We pass the regional town of Geraldton which is the largest centre in the Mid-west region. When we near Kalbarri we overfly the Hutt Lagoon Pink Lake. 

Once past Kalbarri we fly low along the impressive and dramatic Zuytdorp cliffs where the Dutch merchant ship came to grief in 1712. At low tide, and in certain favourably calm conditions, you can even see the remaining ribs of the doomed ship through the clear water. And then on past Womerangee Hill (at 900 feet, the highest point on this part of the coast).

As we fly below cliff level, the views are close and spectacular, allowing you to take in every possible detail. After overflying the Peninsula, you can appreciate the dark blue ocean merging to the light shallow waters of Shark Bay before we land at Denham Airport. A short taxi ride takes us to the friendly, playful Monkey Mia dolphins, and we have two and a half hours to enjoy the white sand, shallow waters and the experience of seeing these beautiful creatures happily frolicking and being fed.

​

We have time for Lunch before heading back down the coast to Perth.
