• Pinnacles Desert ground tour
• Dead Pinnacles from the air
• Free time on Rottnest Island with the quokkas

Hop aboard your own aircraft for the day and fly over the Perth escarpment, farmland, bush and colourful lakes to the outback. Sit beneath the giant formation of Wave Rock, then take a short walk to Hippo’s Yawn.

Next, fly over the Wheatbelt to Cervantes, where a car takes you into the Pinnacles Desert to explore its limestone pillars. Leaving the area, you’ll fly over the Pinnacles for a completely new perspective, including the Dead Pinnacles – a second group of pillars inaccessible by road.

Finally, fly down the West Australian coastline and out over the Indian Ocean to Rottnest Island. Land to relax or meet the local quokkas, before a last flight past Fremantle and the Swan River back to Jandakot.

About 340 km east of Perth near the town of Hyden, Wave Rock is a 15-metre-high, 110-metre-long granite cliff shaped exactly like a breaking ocean wave. It’s part of Hyden Rock, formed from granite around 2.7 billion years old, and its curve was created by weathering below the ground before the surrounding soil eroded away.

Vertical streaks of mineral-stained rock give the wave its bands of grey, ochre and red. The area has deep cultural significance for the local Noongar people, and nearby rock formations carry stories and art that go back thousands of years.

Must-See in Wave Rock

• Wave Rock – walk beneath the curl of the wave
• The walk to the top of Hyden Rock
• Hippo’s Yawn – a rock shaped like a yawning hippo
• Mulka’s Cave – ancient Aboriginal hand stencils
• The colourful salt lakes of the Wheatbelt – seen from the air

In Nambung National Park near Cervantes, thousands of limestone pillars – some up to 3.5 metres tall – rise from bright yellow sand. They formed from ancient seashells that broke down into lime-rich sand, were cemented into limestone, and were later exposed as the sand blew away.

Walking among them feels otherworldly, and seeing them from the air reveals just how vast the field is. Nearby, Lake Thetis is home to stromatolites, living structures similar to some of the earliest life on Earth.

Must-See in The Pinnacles Desert

• The Pinnacles Desert walk trail
• The Dead Pinnacles – visible only from the air
• Lake Thetis stromatolites near Cervantes
• The Turquoise Coast’s beaches and dunes

Rottnest Island, known as Wadjemup to the Whadjuk Noongar people, lies 18 km off Fremantle. It’s car-free, ringed by 63 beaches and 20 bays, and fringed by some of the clearest water on the West Australian coast.

It’s also the best place on earth to meet a quokka. In 1696, Dutch explorer Willem de Vlamingh mistook the little marsupials for large rats and named the island ‘Rotte nest’ – rat’s nest. From the air you’ll also see the island’s pink salt lakes, reefs and historic lighthouse.

Must-See in Rottnest Island

• Quokkas – Rottnest’s famously friendly locals
• The Basin and Pinky Beach – perfect for swimming and snorkelling
• Wadjemup Lighthouse
• Cape Vlamingh and the island’s west end
• The pink salt lakes – best seen from above
