Broome - Horizontal Falls

Broome is a good place to leave from if you're heading into the Kimberley's. We went north from Broome to Talbot Bay in the Buccaneer Archipelago. With 9 others we were picked up in Broome at 5:30am and loaded into a truck and driven a couple of hundred k's north.

We went via Beagle Bay, home to a magnificent church built in the 1800's by Germans and locals, and on to Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm about 100km further north where we had breakfast, a tour of the farm and got to handle some pretty expensive items.









Our ride arrived in the form of a float plane and 35 mins later we landed on Talbot Bay.









We were there for lunch, a tour up and back through the falls, and some nature study on Cyclone Creek.













We got to experience "Kimberley Massage", a water takeoff and landing, a ride through the falls, etc. Some great food, the awesome landscape and to find out a bit about pearls.








We returned to Broome around 4:30pm by air.... a great day.
