    Highlights - Melbourne's Landmarks, Bay & Brighton Beach

    With this extended tour you will see not only Melbourne CBD and Albert Park Lake, but we will continue low level along the beach to the iconic Brighton Beach boxes.

    Just like the Skyline Scenic the flight path will take you over Flemington Racecourse, towards the South Western side of the city. Check out Docklands and Marvel stadium before your flight continues to Albert Park Lake (Famous for the Melbourne GP) and the St Kilda beaches. From here we will extend our flight at low level along the coast all the way to Brighton Beach. See the iconic beach boxes and maybe even some sea life.
