The helicopter lifts you out of Broome and the coastline yawns open beneath you — ochre cliffs give way to green mangroves, then to the mosaic of islands in the Buccaneer Archipelago. By day two you’re on the deck of Cygnet Bay, the salt air carrying the faint machine-precision of pearl-farming and the promise of a seaplane run to the Horizontal Falls. Each transfer is a scene change: seaplane to boat, helicopter to fixed-wing, and at Mount Hart the outback feels large enough to hold a lifetime of stories.
