We really enjoyed the Fly and Flipper day tour! The views from the plane are just stunning; it's really the best way to see the islands as they are spread out over a large area. The colors from the different depths of water would be hard to appreciate from a boat.
Our pilot, Jed, was great! He was professional and detail-orientated (things you like to have in a pilot) and also a warm and friendly guy who made the day enjoyable and informative.
The time on East Wallabi Island was great; we got to see a lot of birds, a Tamar wallaby and interesting shells on the beach. We had ordered the lunch

The team at Shine Aviation were extremely kind, compassionate and helpful when our plans changed at the last minute due to the Covid related border changes. I sincerely appreciated their amazing customer service and I hope to book with them again in the future. Thank you very much. James

I took a charter flight over the Abrolhos Islands with my elderly father in October, in his words it was one of the most memorable things he had ever done, he hasnt stopped talking about it for 3 months. The friendliness and professionalism of the staff at Shine is part of a total experience that should not be missed. I have also done numerous trial flights and again the team just goes out of their way to make the experience completely enjoyable. The aircraft are well maintained and immaculately clean and a pleasure to be in, safety is a high priority and it is clear from the moment you walk in
