Fly High,
Be guided from the sky Fly Broome by the experts at Fly Broome and soak in its splendour.
Broome is absolutely brimming with natural wonders and unique phenomena to take in.
With so much to see and do, if a few hours are all you have up your sleeve book Fly Broome’s half day tour, which manages to cover a wealth of impressive attractions. It even makes time for a hot meal, a peek at Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm’s luminous jewels and a quick dip in the resort’s infinity pool.
If you have the option, take your time soaking in the sights of this seemingly far away land by opting for the full day tour.
Whichever tour option you choose, you’ll be mesmerised by what you see…
Horizontal Falls is an attraction that can’t be missed, and there’s no better way to witness it in action than from the sky. An entirely unique phenomena hailed by David
Attenborough as one of the world’s greatest natural wonders (and he’s seen a few).
In the turquoise water of Talbot Bay, the rapid and immensely high tidal current squeezes through two narrow gorges of the
McLarty Range, spurting out impressive horizontal waterfalls that reverse and flow in the opposite direction as the tide turns each day. Fly over the falls and witness the worldrenowned spectacle in all its glory.
A visit to Broome wouldn’t be complete without a trip to a pearl farm, and Cygnet Bay is one of the most reputable. There you’ll have the chance to indulge in a hot breakfast or lunch, depending on the time of your tour. With fresh, locally sourced barramundi available for lunch, it doesn’t get much more Broome than that.
Following your meal, embark upon a Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm Discovery Tour if you’ve opted for a half day. Learn about the history of Cygnet Bay and how they culture some of the finest pearls in the world. Once the tour is complete make sure to take some time and enjoy the showroom.
If you’ve got the luxury of a full day, you’re in for a treat as you choose your own adventure. Spend two hours embarking upon a Pearl Farm tour, a Sea Safari experience, or discovering ‘Riji – The Art of Carving Shell’ with an Indigenous teacher. The choice is yours!
The attractions don’t stop there. As you explore the best of Broome from the sky, you’ll have the optimal vantage point for viewing Cape Leveque, Beagle Bay, the Lacepede Islands, James Price Point and more. Your knowledgeable pilot will ensure you won’t miss a thing and land with an abundance of new insights and rich experiences to take home. Book at visitbroome.com.au/members/flybroome
