Cape Leveque And The Gorges Itinerary


Day 1 Fitzroy Crossing and Geikie Gorge

Passing boab trees, fascinating termite mounds and roaming cattle, enjoy the local knowledge and interesting stories your guide has to share. Journey into Kimberley gorge country and through the savannah.

On reaching the historic town of Fitzroy Crossing, discover the ancient Napier Range, a limestone Devonian reef 350 million years old and home to the famous Geikie Gorge.

The best way to experience the scenery and abundant wildlife of this natural wonder is to join a river cruise (included). Geikie Gorge floods during the wet season, with the swirling water leaving its bleached mark on the colourful gorge walls.

Though the water retreats during the dry season, water holes remain and sustain the wide variety of Kimberley wildlife. Towards sunset, settle in for an evening under the Kimberley night sky - relax as your guide prepares a campfire barbeque dinner.

Day 2 Windjana Gorge and Tunnel Creek

Take an exciting 4WD track to Tunnel Creek, a 750-metre cave system in an ancient Devonian reef. Explore secret caves and a variety of unusual wildlife.

Hear of the legend of Jandamarra, an Aboriginal freedom fighter who used the Tunnel as a hideout in the late 1800's. A refreshing swim in an idyllic waterhole is a highlight of the day.

Then it's off to Windjana Gorge for a delicious lunch and to search for freshwater crocodiles, local birdlife and indigenous bushtucker in the stunning natural beauty of this oasis of the outback.

Pause in Derby to see the infamous 'Boab Prison Tree', a relic of some cultural sensitivity due to its alleged use as a prison for local Aboriginals during the era of Kimberley pioneers. Arrive back in Broome at approximately 6:30pm for a free evening.

Overnight: Mercure Broome - Motel Room

Day 3 Beagle Bay and Lombadina

The Dampier Peninsula is an extraordinary blend of pristine beaches and dramatic coastlines, rich in traditional Aboriginal culture. Travelling up the red 4WD track, learn about the region's fascinating history from the guided commentary.

Your first stop is the Beagle Bay Aboriginal Community, home of the Beagle Bay Church with its glimmering pearl shell altar. The Church was built entirely by hand by local Aborigines and the Pallotine monks who started the Catholic Mission in the 1800's.Journey on to enjoy lunch in the laid-back Lombadina Community, a beautiful and welcoming community, which is home to an interesting bush timber church and a stunning natural environment.

Travel to beautiful Cape Leveque to set up camp right on the edge of the Indian Ocean. A warm Kimberley sunset is a great way to end the day before the famous Kimberley BBQ under the stars.

Day 4 Cape Leveque

Today you may like to join your guide on a snorkelling adventure (equipment provided), or take up one of the many optional extras on offer including embarking on an indigenous sea kayaking adventure, hiring a dinghy or splurging on a scenic flight.

Alternatively you may prefer to spend your time simply enjoying the pristine beaches and rugged red coastline for which Cape Leveque is famous.

Whether you like swimming, snorkelling, sunbathing or long walks along the beach, Cape Leveque is a great way to relax away a day.

In the afternoon, your Aboriginal guide introduces you to Bardi 'saltwater' country on a leisurely guided bushwalk, providing an indepth insight into indigenous bush tucker, lifestyle and culture.

Day 5 Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm and One Arm Point

Visit the Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm for a delightful breakfast by the sea together with a fascinating insight into the iconic pearling business and the opportunity to invest in a pearl direct from one of the world's most exclusive producers.

Travel to the One Arm Point Community perched on the tip of the Dampier Peninsula. View the spectacular Buccaneer Archipelago and witness the huge tidal flows of the Kimberley, the second biggest in the world.

Visit the Communitys aquaculture hatchery, complete with barramundi, pearl and trochus shell, and enjoy a short boat ride to explore the waters of King Sound.

Driving back through the dusk, keep an eye out for wildlife before arriving back in Broome.
