HeliSpirit return to Esperance to showcase the region’s beauty from above

HeliSpirit have taken to the skies of the south-west for a second season as their Esperance base reopened on Friday 1 October.

The award-winning aviation company opened an Esperance base in November 2020, offering scenic flights showcasing the region’s spectacular coastline and iconic pink Lake Hillier, from above.

An adventure out to Lake Hillier includes a scenic helicopter flight along the Cape Le Grand and Cape Arid coastline’s before landing on Middle Island for a guided walk to the edge of the bubble gum pink lake.

Flights for this experience depart both the Esperance foreshore and Orleans Airfield. The tour from the Esperance foreshore includes a gourmet picnic from local providore The Deli King and refreshments from Lucky Bay Brewing, while flights from Orleans Airfield operate on a specific day each week so pre-bookings are essential.

For those wanting to experience unparalleled views of Esperance’s natural wonders 15, 30 and 45 minute scenic flights highlighting the town of Esperance and its crystal clear blue water and crisp white sand of the surrounding pristine coastline are available.

HeliSpirit have also partnered with Woody Island Eco Tours offering transfers to and from the island as well as a day package that includes a ferry from Esperance with Woody Island Eco Tours and a helicopter flight back in the afternoon.
With a mobile booking office located on the Esperance foreshore, HeliSpirit’s flights depart daily and will run through to 30 April 2022.

HeliSpirit Managing Director, Michael McConachy said the support received from local community and businesses has been amazing and he looked forward to another busy summer season in Esperance.

“It is fantastic to partner with several local businesses and have continued support from the Shire of Esperance and Australia’s Golden Outback,” McConachy said.

“We are really excited to be back in Esperance for another year. This has proved to be an important base for HeliSpirit and we are committed to ensuring it is a great success for Esperance and provides benefit to all involved.”

Australia’s Golden Outback CEO, Marcus Falconer said HeliSpirit was helping to drive tourism in the region through their partnerships with domestic and international trade partners.

“It’s great to see HeliSpirit back in Esperance after their successful first season and I’m sure that their customers over the coming months will get some amazing memories of one of Australia’s most idyllic coastlines,” Falconer said.
