Fly by seaplane over the Kimberley's jaw-dropping Horizontal Falls, then surge through the churning tidal gap by jet boat — one of Australia's most iconic natural spectacles and a true bucket-list double.
What to expect
Board a seaplane at Broome or Derby and swoop low over the Buccaneer Archipelago's ancient ochre gorges and turquoise tidal channels. Land on the pontoon platform at Talbot Bay and then climb aboard a purpose-built jet boat that threads through the two narrow gorges as millions of tonnes of seawater pour between them. Your pilot and guide provide expert commentary on the geology and Bardi Jawi cultural significance throughout. Finish with a seafood platter on the floating platform before your return flight.
Good to know
Departs from Broome Airport or Derby; transfers from Talbot Bay port must be pre-arranged. Flights operate April–October (dry season). Pre-book well in advance — capacity is strictly limited to 10–12 guests per flight. Confirm your cruise all-aboard time and select a morning departure to allow comfortable return.
