Townsville – 90 Minute Scenic Flight – Hinchinbrook Island
Highlights
- Soar over Hinchinbrook Island's jagged peaks, experiencing breathtaking views of Australia's largest Island National Park.
- Marvel at the mist-covered summit of Mount Bowen, where seasonal creeks cascade into stunning waterfalls.
- Explore secluded coves and pristine sandy beaches along the island's eastern shoreline, perfect for a tranquil escape.
- Enjoy a comprehensive 90-minute scenic flight, combining the highlights of the Palm Island Group with unparalleled aerial vistas.
The most comprehensive scenic flight experience in the region, combining all the incredible highlights of our 60 minute Palm Island Group Scenic Flight plus a circuit of Australia’s largest Island National Park, Hinchinbrook Island.
Visible from afar, the islands mountainous backbone has weathered into spectacular jagged peaks, reaching 1142m (3746ft) at their highest point, being the often mist-covered summit of Mount Bowen.
From here, seasonal creeks descend into stunning waterfalls (Mulligan and Zoe Falls) or in other areas through the islands rainforest and open woodland forming abundant estuaries flowing out to sea.
The views around Hinchinbrook are spectacularly punctuated by abrupt headlands giving way to countless secluded coves and pristine sandy beaches which stretch along much of the islands eastern shoreline.
