About this tour

Fly from Perth to the Pinnacles Desert near Cervantes for a full sensory tour combining aviation and ground exploration. This 4-hour outing takes you over WA's dramatic coastline, down to walk amongst the otherworldly limestone towers, then airborne again to see the formations from above and spot the hidden 'dead pinnacles' visible only from the sky. National park fees and flights included.

Highlights

  • Coastal flyover from Perth reveals shipwrecks and remote beaches
  • Walk through towering limestone formations in the desert
  • Second aerial pass reveals geological structures invisible from ground
  • Spot isolated dead pinnacles nestled in bushland from above
  • Small-group fixed-wing aircraft for intimate viewing
  • All fitness levels welcome; prams and service animals accommodated

What to expect

You'll board a fixed-wing aircraft in Perth for a scenic flight to Cervantes, tracking the WA coastline en route. After landing, a short drive takes you into Nambung National Park where you'll explore the Pinnacles on foot—an eerie landscape of grey limestone pillars scattered across sand. Bring a camera; the formations create striking photo compositions from ground level. Back in the air, the same desert transforms perspective. Flying low over the spires reveals their scale and density, then the pilot heads towards the 'dead pinnacles'—eroded structures visible solely from above, adding mystery to this final leg.
