Why Kimberley Boat Tours Are the Best Way to Discover the Region

May 02, 2018 0
With the rugged beauty of the landscape and pristine waterfalls and beaches, it’s no surprise that visitors return to the Kimberley again and again. To truly immerse yourself in the Kimberley experience, you really need to explore by boat. Let’s take a look at some of the reasons why heading off into the Kimberley by boat offers a truly unique experience.


A unique perspective

Compared to travelling around the Kimberley by land, taking in the sights by boat gives you a whole new perspective as you sail through the pristine waters. You’ll be able to experience all of the beauty of this ancient region as you pass through towering gorges and look up at thundering waterfalls. You’ll also be able to visit destinations which would have otherwise been inaccessible by vehicle and explore the smaller islands which dot the waters of the Kimberley.

Plenty of activities

You’ll never be short of activities when you choose a Kimberley boat tour. With tender excursions to explore more of the region, access to the best fishing spots and hiking expeditions around the area, you can guarantee that you’ll never be bored! In some cases, you may also have the opportunity to experience the sights of the Kimberley with a scenic helicopter flight as part of your charter experience.

Food and drink provided

With a scheduled boat tour, you don’t need to worry about packing up a vehicle with supplies – everything is taken care of. Your meals will all be prepared on board so you can take in the scenery as you enjoy the local produce. All non-alcohol beverages are also included. This means that you can pack much lighter without having to worry about organising your own supplies!

Experienced crew

To really get to know the Kimberley region, it’s best to travel with someone who knows the area. The crew aboard your Kimberley boat tour know the region like the back of their hand and can take you to all of the best places so you really get the discover everything the Kimberley has to offer. They’ll also be able to answer any questions you may have along the way.

Opportunity for a private charter

While you’ll have the option of a number of scheduled boat cruises, many companies also offer the opportunity for you to organise a private charter.

May 02, 2018 0
If you’ve been thinking about heading off to the Kimberley for your next holiday, what are you waiting for! This stunning region has so much to offer and it will truly be the experience of a lifetime. With that in mind, let’s take a look at some of the main reasons why you should visit the Kimberley for your next adventure.


Stunning scenery

When it comes to photo opportunities in the Kimberley, you don’t need to look very hard. The ancient, rugged landscape comes complete with rocky outcrops, spectacular gorges and unique plant life. In stark contrast is the turquoise ocean, pristine beaches and flowing waterfalls. For something truly special, make sure you sit back and take in the sunset each evening - you won’t want to put your camera away!

Unique wildlife

The largely untouched Kimberley region is home to an amazing array of unique wildlife, some easier to spot than others. The more well-known animals such as crocodiles and wallabies are easy to spot, while you may have to look a little harder for the local echidnas and shy bilbies. There is also a vast collection of over 300 bird species which call the Kimberley home, including colourful parrots and noisy galahs.

Fishing paradise

Whether you’re a seasoned angler or want to try your hand at fishing for the first time, you’ve come to the right place when you visit the Kimberley region. Most keen fishers hope to land the impressive barramundi or threadfin salmon – these sports fish can grow to an impressive size and are also delicious for eating. There are also a number of other fish species which make for great catches, not the mention the sizeable mud crabs which are found in the area.

Amazing history

The ancient landscape of the Kimberley means that it’s steeped in a rich history. The presence of the ancient Aboriginal inhabitants of the area is evident in the incredible array of rock art, some of which is estimated to date back 50,000 to 60,000 years. There is also evidence of early European explorers, the most famous being the ‘Mermaid’ boab tree, and many other fascinating historical sites.

Activities for everyone

One of the best aspects of visiting the Kimberley region is that there’s something to offer everyone. Whether you love the idea of getting active with hiking and swimming or prefer to take it easy and take in the view, you’ll be able to have the holiday of your choosing when you visit the Kimberley.
