Abrolhos Islands WA

Hi all,

I'm just after some information about the available landing strips (strip length, condition etc) at the Abrolhos islands. Just looking at heading out there in a 206 soon and wondering if it is feasible.

Cheers,
Defiant.

There are strips at Rat Island and East Wallaby that I hear Cessna singles going into all the time. There's also a strip at North Island. Best bet would be to have a chat to the charter/scenic operators in Geraldton.

I think you need a permit from department of fisheries to land out there. You need a check flight into the strips you want to use

I did some research on google for ya.

The only airstrip general aviators can land on is the east wallabi airstrip.
There's a $10 landing and takeoff fee.

Here's also some info I found on east wallabi
