MARREE

LAKE EYRE FLIGHTS


Undertake a flight to experience one of the wonders of nature – the filling of Lake Eyre!
The massive Lake Eyre system covers an area of over 9,500 square kilometres, roughly the size of Holland. Nearly one-sixth of Australia's landmass drains into Lake Eyre, but it has filled to capacity only three times in the past 150 years. When water flows in to part-fill the lake via great inland rivers including the Diamantina, Cooper Creek and the Warburton, the spectacle is breathtaking. 

Wrightsair is now also situated at Marree, which is at the junction of the Birdsville &Oodnadatta Tracks, South Australia.

Wrightsair is mindful of your wish to enjoy viewing Lake Eyre the best possible way.

For this reason our aircraft fly slower, so you get a better look,

 we provide big clear windows for excellent views and lots of leg room

for a more comfortable ride. So welcome aboard!

Our flights are as follows:-    

FLIGHT 1: Marree - Lake Eyre 1.5 Hour Flight. (See Red line on above map)

Jackboot Bay, Bonython Headland, and Lake Eyre South before returning back to Marree. Price:$280 pp.
