Moreton Bay & Bribie Island

Crystal clear waters and the long stretch of Bribie Island immediately after takeoff.

🏖️

The Sunshine Coast

Iconic beaches spanning from Caloundra up to the Noosa Headland.

🌊

K'gari (Fraser Island)

The southern end and western coastline of the world's largest sand island are often visible.

🐋

Hervey Bay

Beautiful turquoise waters of the bay, a famous humpback whale nursery from July to November.

🛶

Burnett River

The winding river guiding the aircraft's final approach into the Bundaberg region.

Sit on the right side for morning departures to have the sun behind you for better photos of the coast. Use polarized lenses to see through the water reflections of Moreton Bay and Hervey Bay. Landmarks appear quickly on this short 45-minute hop.
