About this tour

Fly over inland scrub and farmland to Wave Rock, where you'll explore this massive natural formation before tourist buses arrive, plus the quirky Hippo's Yawn rock formation. After morning tea and browsing local museums (entry extra), you'll fly to Cervantes to walk among thousands of limestone pillars jutting from the Pinnacles Desert—a landscape found nowhere else on Earth. The return flight skims the coast and inaccessible Dead Pinnacles back to Perth. Eight hours total; lunch included.

Highlights

  • One-hour scenic flight over Western Australian interior landscape
  • Wave Rock at dawn, ahead of afternoon crowds
  • Hippo's Yawn rock outcrop and surrounding formations
  • Walk among thousands of limestone Pinnacles Desert pillars
  • Aerial tour of Dead Pinnacles and coastal beaches
  • Cervantes fishing village stopover and ground exploration

What to expect

You'll start with a flight across farming country and low hills, touching down near Wave Rock while the site is still quiet. The ground tour takes in the main rock formation and surrounding curiosities; several hours here allows for tea, gift shopping, and optional museum visits if you're keen. Then it's back to the airfield for a flight north to Cervantes. The Pinnacles walk is straightforward—you wander among thousands of weathered limestone spikes scattered across red sand. The return flight gives you aerial views of the pillars from above and a coastal run back to Perth, taking in stretches of beach and the inaccessible Dead Pinnacles en route.
