Halls Creek Airport WA

Halls Creek Airport in WA is a remote airport that services the nearby town of Halls Creek.

Aircrafts movements from this airport are primarily GA with sightseeing flights and commutes to remote communities dominant. There is an regular public transport flight service from Broome  and a twice weekly mail service to a number of the outlying remote Aboriginal communities.

In 1948 the town of Halls Creek was physically moved 16 km to its present location. The move continued until the old township was finally abandoned in 1954. The reasons were a combination of lack of water and a re-routing of the Derby-Kununurra Road (now Highway 1) to avoid winding through the hills around the old town.

Today Halls Creek is a small settlement which services the ever-increasing tourist trade with a hotel, motel, a supermarket and an aerial tour operator who goes to the Bungle Bungles (now Purnululu National Park) and Wolfe Creek Crater.
