Buccaneer Archipelago
Code B1/2BU

Broome Aviation first began doing the Buccaneer Archipelago flight in the ‘80s. Soon after the lighthouse settlement was handed back to the people of One Arm Point and DJarindjin. 

This will be one of the most remarkable experiences of your life! From Broome, we sweep over China Town and head towards the Dampier Peninsula and then across the mighty King’s Sound where you’ll enjoy a sensational view of the fabled Fitzroy River.

As we descend, the hundreds of islands that make up the Buccaneer Archipelago begin to miraculously materialise Photo opportunities abound here. The Horizontal Waterfall is the next spectacle. This phenomenon is caused by rapidly falling tides that trap water in a lagoon formed by a ring of islands.

Onwards to Talbot Bay, we witness hundreds of lines (or millions of dollars worth) of pearl shells belonging to the world famous Paspaley Pearling empire. As we weave our way through seemingly endless islands including Cockatoo and Koolan, your pilot sets course for Cape Leveque and a delightful morning tea. You are welcome to enjoy a dip in the Cape’s turquoise waters or take a self-guided walk. Your return flight passes the Beagle Bay and Lombadina Aboriginal communities before returning to Broome.
