Above The Land Down Under
Aerial Photos from Australia
Australia has to be one of the most diverse countries that we’ve ever been to, and also one of the most beautiful. From pristine unspoilt beaches, to charming towns and cities. No doubt we consider ourselves fortunate to have captured some of these highlights with a drone.
We started our journey in Hobart, Tasmania, and then drove along the Great Eastern Drive all the way to Launceston. Along the gorgeous drive, we stayed at quaint towns and saw some of the most spectacular sights. Our favourite was Binalong Bay and the Bay of Fires. Never have we seen such vivid colours – transparent blue waters and white sand beaches. Not to forget the red streaks on the rocky shores of the Bay of Fires.
Other great sights were the Bridestowe Lavender Estate and the Little Blue Lake. We were lucky to have a drone to capture these gorgeous attractions from a unique perspective.
Once we returned to the mainland, we drove along the Great Ocean Road. In fact, we drove all the way from Melbourne to Adelaide! Again, we stopped at charming towns along the southern coast of Australia. Although we were only able to capture the beauty of some of these towns from the air, we were just fortunate to have seen them!
We hope you enjoy these drone aerial photos from our trip to Australia. I know we just scratched the surface but I’m certain we’ll be back for more.

Hi, lovely photos, especially in Tassie. Did you run into any issues around permits to fly the drone, especially in national parks? I’m heading to Tassie soon and am hoping to do some aerial photography, so it would be most helpful if you could share your experience. Thanks, Suzanne
Hi Suzanne,
Thank you very much!
There was no permit requirement when we travelled to Tassie, but that might have changed now. From my experience, regulations were pretty strict. In fact, drones aren’t allowed in national parks.
I’ve written about my experience of flying drones in Aussie and Tassie on this page.
Enjoy your trip!
