12 apostles flights from Melbourne

Your 12 Apostles flights from Melbourne begin by flying over the Melbourne CBD almost eye to eye with skyscrapers before heading over Port Phillip Bay and crossing the vineyards, pastures and coastal towns of the Bellarine Peninsular. We cross the coast proper around Torquay. Then over the famous Bells Beach, before paralleling the Great Ocean Road as it twists its way down past Lorne and Apollo Bay.

The Great Ocean Road then turns inland but we keep on flying southwest into the real wilderness – Cape Otway National Park. We pass the historic Cape Otway Lighthouse then we round Moonlight Head and voila! The magnificent 12 Apostles swing into view!

Melbourne – Great Ocean Road – 12 Apostles – Melbourne in 2 hours!

The aircraft have oversized windows allowing passengers on either side of the aircraft excellent views and ability to take pictures from any side. Pass the 12 Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge, Gibsons Steps and more before turning inland at the picturesque fishing village of Port Campbell. From here it is a 60-minute ride over typical Australian farming scenes of dairy, cropping, sheep and cattle before arriving back at Melbourne Airport (Essendon) feeling fresh and relaxed, ready to pack even more into the day!

Alternatively, not-quite-so time poor travellers to the 12 Apostles can drive to Barwon Heads Airport – only a bit over an hour from Melbourne CBD. Prices start at $480 for a single passenger tour, $1,250 for up to 7 people.
