Perth Scenic Flight - City River and Beaches

About this tour

This 30-minute scenic flight departs Jandakot Airport and charts Perth from the air, tracking the Swan River's curves through the city before sweeping past King's Park and the central business district. The route continues westward over Cottesloe and the Indian Ocean's coastline, then loops back via Fremantle and the river mouth. You'll land with a clearer sense of how Perth's geography actually fits together—the river's role, the beach sprawl, the urban density all visible at once.

Highlights

• Swan River meanders viewed from altitude
• King's Park and city skyline circling
• Cottesloe Beach and surrounding coastal strip
• Fremantle port and river mouth approach
• Window seat guaranteed, free airport parking
• Suitable for wheelchair users and families

What to expect

You'll board at Jandakot, strap in with a guaranteed window seat, and take off on a straightforward aerial tour. The first stretch follows the Swan River's bends as it cuts through Perth's suburbs toward the city centre—you'll see how the river shapes everything. Then it's over the CBD and King's Park, getting a true perspective on density and scale. The westward leg reveals why Cottesloe has the reputation it does: the beach, the water colour, the isolation from urban sprawl. Fremantle appears next, its port and heritage precinct obvious from above. The return leg heads back to Jandakot. Thirty minutes moves quickly at altitude.
