We came to Tasmania to squeeze as much in as possible. This tour took in great views of the east coast of Tasmania and Wine Glass bay. The day was a bit gloomy and over cast and I was worried about turbulence. But our pilot flew a smooth flight and but any fears as easy. We had a lovely lunch on the beach and the rain held off which made our tour that much better.
Enjoyed the experience, great way to see the country. Friendly pilots and guide. Should have brought warmer clothes for the boat ride.
Such an incredible experience with the most amazing views and fantastic pilots 😁
After being cancelled twice beforehand we scored a fantastic day going out to Port Davey and the Break Sea Islands which is something not a lot of the tours are able to do due to swells. The scenery was amazing flying over Bruny Island and the coast on the way down and then flying over Federation Peak and Mount Wellington on the homeward journey. Our guide was very passionate and knowledgeable (Cal) sharing many tips and facts a long the way. After the flight we boarded a little boat weaving through the rivulets and channels to Bathurst Harbour. Stopping for morning tea with Tasmanian cheeses and shortbread with plunger coffee at a historical house now lovingly restored and after more cruising lunch was on Balmoral Beach which was lovely served with Tasmanian wine. Our plane was a six seater (including the pilot) and the other groups were in a twelve seater. This is such a pristine part of Tasmania not easily accessible which is stunning and so worth the cost to do this!
The highlight of our week in Tasmania! Our flights with Theo at the controls were incredible; we saw parts of Tasmania that we couldn't possible have viewed any other way. Callum provided us with wonderful insight into the history, flora and fauna of Southwest National Park, including a chance to watch endangered orange-bellied parrots at a feeding station. Lunch on secluded, beautiful Balmoral Beach was delightful.
An extraordinary day out with Callum and the Par Avion team on the Southwest Wilderness Tour. Taking in the spectacular scenery of Southwest National Park by air and by boat was a special experience. We made it all the way out to the Break Sea Islands, which was worth the ride! Callum navigated the boat expertly through 35 knot winds. The food and drinks were also top notch. It was great to see the Park through the eyes of a local - Callum's passion and enthusiasm for Tasmania was infectious. Don't hesitate - sign up for this tour!
I had an amazing time, the pilot was welcoming and fun to chat with and it’s definitely helped me see I would like to go for my pilots licence. Great way to see Hobart
This trip has been on our Tassie bucket list for years and it did not disappoint.
Melaleuca was so beautiful, so much history and stunning scenery, we saw whales flying down the coast and the rare orange bellied parrots in their natural habitat. Our tour made it right out to the heads of Port Davey, where we could feel the remoteness, isolation and beauty of this place. I would absolutely recommend this trip, a well-run tour and a perfect day out.

Absolutely amazing trip- highlight of our 4 week holiday. Really well organised and Callum was lovely and so knowledgeable.
And Sunday, not quite as much of an aurora but a planned burn by Tasmanian parks and wildlife lit up the sky!

Micro-dosing capsules really helped with my anxiety, depression, ADHD, Dementia and fibromyalgia. I have been coping well since I started micro-dosing Psilocybin. I usually get the capsules from (Martin_spores) message them on Instagram ... ... He's a mycologist and he guided me through the journey of getting better I think you should try it would be worth of your time.
Our webcams are Melaleuca captured the aurora Saturday evening - what a great place to view it!

I love logging in to see what Melaleuca can see 😍 Glad it gets looked at by Par Avion too
Natural medication will help. I use natural alternatives for my anxieties and depression, I take CBD gummies for my ADHD/anxiety/OCD, Schizophrenia, depression they're working great for me. I have been improving since i started taking them, the meltdowns and outbursts barely happen, and it has improved my focus which lets me concentrate better. I deals with aggression a lot better and also helps me keep calm. I’d recommend them to anyone. I got it from Martin_spores message them on instagram . In case you wish to try them. Sending love

We have a new record for our Orange-bellied Parrot (OBP) breeding season! Seventy-four fledglings were produced from 33 nest-boxes, which is the highest number and proportion of nests recorded in the wild since monitoring began in 1993.
Eighteen captive-bred adult OBPs were released for breeding and 40 captive-bred juveniles were released in late summer ahead of migration. A total of 188 OBPs are estimated to have migrated from Melaleuca at the end of the breeding season.
Work is now underway to track OBPs during their migration over the non-breeding period.
Thank you to our recovery team staff, volunteers, researchers and to our mainland captive institutions we collaborate with for all our efforts in making this breeding season a success.
Check out NRE Tas’s website for more information on the 2023-24 breeding season results: nre.tas.gov.au/about-the-department/news/successful-breeding-season-for-orange-bellied-parrots
