Eastern Explorer Scenic Flight

Discover the lesser-seen eastern side of Shark Bay on this spectacular scenic flight, revealing intricate water formations and marine-rich coastlines best appreciated from the air. Departing from Shark Bay Airport, fly over Denham township before following the coastline of Francois Peron National Park. Take in the striking contrasts of Big Lagoon, Cape Peron, and Monkey Mia, where crystal-clear waters often reveal rays, turtles, dolphins, sharks, and other marine life below. From Monkey Mia, the flight continues around Faure Island, passing over the fascinating "Tiger Stripes" and the Faure Sill. Track eastward over Ocean Park Aquarium and along the rugged coastline of Freycinet Harbour, before reaching the vivid salt ponds of Useless Loop and the dramatic Zuytdorp Cliffs. Enjoy panoramic views of South Passage and its coral reef systems before circling back toward Denham. The flight concludes with a final highlight – a pass over the brilliant blue waters of Little Lagoon - just before landing. This scenic flight is ideal for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone seeking a comprehensive aerial overview of eastern Shark Bay's most iconic landscapes.
