What to expect
You'll board a light aircraft for the flight north, with views unfolding across turquoise bays and island chains. The Horizontal Waterfalls—a tidal phenomenon where water surges through narrow gorges—are spectacular but unpredictable; water flow and intensity vary with tides. At Cygnet Bay, a guide walks you through pearl farming operations before lunch at the on-site restaurant. Time permits a cooling swim in their pool. The return flight hugs the coast, passing fishing communities and limestone cliffs. The whole journey covers roughly 400 kilometres of outback and coast.
