Fly to remote, tropical Lord Howe Island by charted aircraft. With world-heritage listed beauty, and surprisingly off the radar, this former volcano towering out of an idyllic lagoon is verdant, with white beaches, unique ecology and fascinating birdlife. Weather permitting, fly over the spectacular pinnacle of Ball’s Pyramid before exploring the island with your local guide. Absorb the views as you sit down for a two-course meal. Spend your afternoon fish feeding at Ned’s Beach, snorkelling in the crystal waters or for those who prefer to stay dry, a glass bottom boat is available to witness marine life from above.

Weather permitting, you will circle Balls Pyramid before landing, the tallest sea stack in the world standing at 551m which is an erosional remnant of a shield volcano and caldera.

After this spectacular view, fly into Lord Howe Island which is an experience in itself! An island paradise with pristine beaches, abundant wildlife and just 350 residents, UNESCO World Heritage listed Lord Howe Island is a unique and untouched destination.

On arrival, you will be met and set off for an island orientation tour. Take a journey through the island from early settlement to the present day and all the wonderful things in between. Uncover Lord Howe Island’s more interesting nooks and crannies! Keep your eyes peeled for many of the island’s ever-changing sea and land birds. The island’s rare bird the endemic Woodhen and Kentia Palm. Learn all about the island’s social history, early settlement, predators and pests, flora and fauna, ships, flying boats and the airstrip, island tales and even buried treasure!
