The Kimberley is a place for those seeking an adventure holiday to Australia.  Set against a backdrop of colossal waterways, craggy outcroppings and shimmering ocean, the Kimberley is as multi-faceted as one of its most spectacular diamonds.  You can camel-ride across Broome’s Cable Beach, fly above the Bungle Bungles, or four-wheel the Gibb River Road to Ord River or Lake Argyle.

Experience the outstanding colours and eternal horizons of The Kimberley landscape.  Mix with the Aboriginal people and hear their tales of the ancients.  Tour diamond mines and watch pearls being farmed.  Hunt precious gems and experience wild animals, flora and fauna.  Get a breathtaking look at the amazing waterfalls of the Mitchell Plateau and the majesty of the Bungle Bungle Ranges.

Along with the splendor of the rugged landscapes, The Kimberley also offers the wonders of its coastline where you can scuba and snorkel.  Rowley Shoals Marine Park is just one of many pristine locations for underwater exploration.  If you are in the mood for something a bit more tame, you can choose to cruise the Buccaneer Archipelago and sail among its 1000 islands.

In The Kimberley, you can experience Aboriginal lifestyle firsthand by staying in a traditional community on the Dampier Peninsula.  Kayak, snorkel, mud-crab, and go fishing in the company of local guides.  Investigate King George Falls and Geikie Gorge with their traditional Aboriginal owners.  Examine Gwion Gwion paintings on the Mitchell Plateau and see ancient rock art at Drysdale National Park.  Tour Aboriginal arts galleries in Derby, Kununurra, and Broome.

Wildlife abounds in an almost prehistoric setting in The Kimberley.  Lizards, salt-water crocodiles, birds, and rock wallabies are among the types of wild creatures you’ll spot while on holiday in The Kimberley.  Arrange special tours and visits to breeding spots and migratory sites like Roebuck Bay, which boasts a huge bird movement from September to April.  Birdwatchers will especially enjoy the sights at Marlgu Billabong and Parrys Lagoon, also.

Prestige comes to The Kimberley in the form of diamonds and pearls.  The region is known for its rich pearling history, which can be traced by visiting the Japanese Cemetery and Chinatown.  You can visit the Argyle Diamond Mine, which is where the majority of the world’s rare pink diamonds are discovered.

If you are enticed by the idea of traveling Green, you can visit eco-cabins just off the Gibb River Road and the Dampier Peninsula to experience tourism the eco-friendly way.

No matter what adventures you choose for your time in The Kimberley, it is sure to be an enriching and rewarding experience of a lifetime in a land that perhaps time has forgot.
