WWII Plane Wreck Tour

- Location: Broome, WA
- Product code: PZVEGW
Embark on a rare adventure with our World War II Plane Wreck Tour aboard the Brahminy Kite, a shallow draft boat designed for this unique experience. Explore the best-preserved Dornier Flying Boat wreck in Roebuck Bay, exposed only a handful of times a year due to Broome's extraordinary tidal range, the 4th highest in the world. Imagine standing on the seabed, where just 6 hours earlier, the water was three stories above your head, and will be again 6 hours after you leave.
Disembark to explore this historic war relic and learn about the plane's history and the tragic attacks that led to its demise during World War II. Delve into the multicultural history of Broome, a town rich in diverse cultural influences, as you witness marine life and the incredible tidal changes.
Enjoy hot tea, coffee, pastries, sparkling wine, or orange juice paired with cheese and fruit platters on board. Complimentary transfers to and from your resort are included. The tour lasts approximately 4 hours, including transfers.
Please note, a good level of fitness, mobility, and balance is required, as the tour involves walking up to 500 meters over tidal flats and wading through shin-deep water. Reef shoes are compulsory. For booking, children are considered aged 0 to 14 years.
