Departing Broome at approximately 7.00am, we
journey up the spectacular Dampier Peninsula, also known as ‘Dampier
Land’. Largely Aboriginal-owned land, the Dampier is a delight for
travellers seeking a Kimberley experience that is culturally rewarding
in a beautiful environment. Travelling up the red 4WD track, learn about
the peninsula’s fascinating place in Australia’s history from our guided
commentary.
Our first stop is the Beagle Bay Aboriginal Community, home of the
Beagle Bay Church and its glimmering pearl shell altar, for morning tea.
We then visit One Arm Point Community, the perfect place to view the
spectacular Buccaneer Archipelago and witness the huge tidal flows of
the Kimberley. Don’t miss the Community’s aquaculture hatchery, complete
with reef fish and trochus shell while a short boat ride to explore the
waters of King Sound is a highlight of the day. We then reach beautiful Cape Leveque
(locally known as Kooljaman) for a delicious lunch of Cone Bay
Barramundi and an afternoon on
the pristine beaches and spectacular coastline the cape is renowned for.
Whether you prefer swimming, snorkelling, sunbathing or taking a long
walks along the beach, the afternoon is yours to enjoy.
We return to Broome at
approximately 6:30pm.
