The Kimberley region in the far north of Western Australia covers an area of some 420,000 kilometres, a region of diverse and ancient landscapes. There are adventure tours of all kinds and remote places to get away from it all.
Indeed, the region has less people per sq km than almost any other place on earth. Yet, due to its vast size, there are rivers, mountains, national parks, pristine coastline and jungle to explore. You can find waterfalls, peaceful and deep gorges.

This poly cultural town was a pearl mining operation during the late 18th and early 19th Century, its tropical beaches a great place to while away the day.
