This was our opportunity to spend a bunch of extra money to get an extra experience: Fly in a helicopter from a beach in Swift Bay over the Mitchell River to Mitchell Falls. Not only did this give access to an impressive system of three waterfalls and an otherwise inaccessible swimming hole, it gave a view of the forbiddingly rugged interior of the Kimberley. About 3/4 of the cruisers chose to make the trip, and were not disappointed. This post shows the vistas along the way in a way that only a helicopter or a low-flying small plane can do; the next will show the Mitchell Falls area up close.
