SELF FLY - FLY HIRE - DIY FLY HOLIDAY - KIMBERLEY SELF FLY FEAST

Aviate, navigate, communicate, evaluate, estimate, and so on ---- these rules work all over the world so come to Broome and utilise your skills along the wonderful superb sublime sea and landscapes easily accessible from our Pearler Town in the Kimberley.

Fly yourself to Talbot Bay and see the Horizontal Waterfalls - Sir Richard Attenborough says the Horizontal Falls are - "One of the Greatest Natural Wonders of the World!"

Horizontal Waterfall

Air cruise the most azure water on the globe at Cape Leveque, whilst there , have a cup of tea under the palm pergolas..... what about we organise a fishing trip with the locals at One Arm Point...

The Dampier Peninsula is pristine country, it is laid out like a big triangle with Broome on the western corner, Derby on the eastern corner and Leveque at the top - water abounds, this means coastline surrounds a sort of pindan coloured triangle surrounded by blue background - easier navigation just doesn't happen.

Pop into Beagle Bay and buy a loaf of bread from the wood fired ovens, every Mon Wed Fri in fact. For 100 years, the wood fired ovens have turned out the most sensational high top loaves with ever such a slight burnt bottom - hey, the author has been eating it for 38 years, it is worth a trip.

Some call the it the Mayonnaise Archipelago....there are over a thousand islands North East of the Dampier Pen... it is breathtakingly beautiful. This is all the country that people pay $14000 a week to cruise in luxury boats - you can take a look over a short or long time. See the place like no one else hardly ever gets to see it.

Ok, say you have gone off in one of our planes and explored the Dampier Pen and beyond...you've earned a rest and planning now for your trip into the Kimberley - same awesome wilderness but very differnrt, not much by way of waterscapes, more mountains, gorges and rivers. Geikie and Windjana Gorges, the famous Fossil Downs Station where the pioneering family who claimed it in 1825, are still there, they're the last pioneering family in the Kimberley.

You can see Geikie Gorge from their place - spectacular from the air and of course you know that the Fitzroy River is second only to the Amazon in waterflow. Stop in at Derby on the way home and you can see where the government didn't build the tidal power house, appreciate what power is there in 11.8 metre tides - second highest in the world and twice a day. Even crocs love the Derby Jetty. Hey, you have seen some of this untameable force at the Horizontal Waterfall.

Have we whetted your appetite for a self fly??

Our fleet comprises 3 aircraft - two Cessna 182's

Cessna 182
