Soaring with @kakaduair is the ultimate way to take in the sheer scale and beauty of this incredible landscape 🚁. From the air, you’ll see ancient escarpments, winding floodplains, and vast billabongs teeming with birdlife and crocodiles.
Catch breathtaking views of Jim Jim Falls, Twin Falls, and the dramatic stone country that tells stories thousands of years old. In the dry season, witness the land cracked and golden; in the wet, it becomes a living, breathing sea of green and water.
This is Kakadu from a whole new perspective — and it’s unforgettable.
