Fantastic Flight
During our stay in Exmouth we had the good sense to enjoy this scenic flight.It was truly unbelievably beautiful, to see the gorges, the turquoise water, the reefs, spotting a whale and her calf, then a whale shark, it looked a big tadpole for up there lol.
Our pilot, RICHARD, was bloody fantastic, it was very windy and quite bumpy at times but he was in total control at all times and gave us great info as we flew around, and even circled the whale and calf several times so that we could have a better look.
I applaud his flying skill upon descending and landing as the wind was rather naughty but he got us down safely.
Many thanks Richard, a job well done.
Very very highly recommended, a MUST DO whilst in Exmouth.
Fantastic Flight
Our family of four went in two planes. The experience was amazing. We did the one hour tour and loved it. Got some great photos and both pilots were very knowledgeable with the local area.Amazing Flight! Amazing Sights!
My husband and I took a scenic flight with Norwest air and it was an amazing experience. Conor our pilot was very professional and handled our booking, choose a good slot for us and we had a wonderful time and felt safe and at ease. We flew over Norwest cape and Ningaloo reef . Conor was terrific and very well informed and was so good at spotting could spot marine life much fastwere fortunate enough to be able to see pods of humpback whales and baby whales breaching ! Couldn't recommend this company highly enough. Thank you Conor for a fantastic trip
