Business Description
Fly Through History with Gooney Bird Adventures
Hop aboard the legendary DC-3 for an unforgettable hour-long flight retracing the WWII bombing of Darwin Harbour. Departing from Darwin, soar west over Mandorah and the Beagle Gulf’s shipwrecks, then on to Garden Point—where Japan’s attack on Darwin began.
Cruise above Melville and Bathurst Islands, where history meets stunning scenery, and spot the Nguiu community below. Loop past Cape Gambier, the Vernon Islands, and wartime airstrips at Noonamah and Hughes.
The grand finale? A sweeping pass over Channel Island, Darwin’s historic wharf, and a golden sunset orbit above iconic Mindil Beach.
Complete with a Territory tasting plate and drinks, this is history, beauty, and adventure—all in one sky-high experience.
