Discover Perth and Fremantle from the Air

Perth is one of the most beautiful cities in the world to see from above – a modern skyline set on the broad blue Swan River, with Kings Park’s bushland on one side and long white beaches stretching along the Indian Ocean coast.

Downstream, the port city of Fremantle is full of heritage architecture and maritime history, and from the air you can trace the river’s path all the way to the sea.

Must-See in Perth and Fremantle from the Air

  • The Perth CBD skyline and Elizabeth Quay
  • Kings Park – one of the world’s largest inner-city parks
  • The Swan River
  • Fremantle and its harbour
  • Cottesloe and Perth’s coastal beaches

Discover Rottnest Island (Wadjemup)

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
