Flying with Legendaire unlocks a stunning aerial detour over the Abrolhos Islands, a breathtaking mosaic of reef and sea now poised to become WA’s next eco-tourism gem, as new infrastructure opens the door to unforgettable adventures in the heart of the Mid West.

  • Legendaire delivers a first-class, customisable flying experience across WA with stylish interiors, competitive pricing, and the unique opportunity for passengers to sit in the cockpit and engage with expert pilots during the flight.
  • Backed by 40 years of global aviation experience, Legendaire's passionate team ensures safe, efficient journeys for both passengers and cargo, with easy online booking and flexible travel options.
  • The Abrolhos Islands are the southernmost true coral reef system in the Indian Ocean, supporting a rare mix of tropical and temperate marine life.
  • They are famous for the 1629 shipwreck of the Batavia, a Dutch trading vessel whose survivors endured mutiny and massacre on the islands.
  • The waters around the islands support one of the world’s most valuable and sustainably managed fisheries: the Western Rock Lobster.
  • Located about 60 km off Geraldton, the 122 islands are home to seabirds, sea lions, dolphins, and migrating whales, making them a remote sanctuary for wildlife.
