Why you'll love this trip

  • You can't visit Broome without visiting the Cape, two days around the wonderful North with an experienced Guide and a host to prepare your meals

  • We include the Islands of the Giant Tides cruise in our tour price

Is this trip right for you?

  • The roads to the Cape can be a little rough, so be prepared to bounce around your seat on the drive there and back.

  • We camp, but it's comfortable. Part of the experience is being out in the wilderness so be prepared to embrace it.

The Dampier Peninsula is an extraordinary blend of stunning coastline and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture. Travelling up the red 4WD track, learn about the region's fascinating history by guided commentary. Your first stop is for morning tea at the Beagle Bay Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander Community, home of the Beagle Bay Church and its glimmering pearl shell altar. By mid-morning, arrive at One Arm Point (also known as Ardyaloon) home of the Bardi-Jawi people, a local community perched on the tip of the Dampier Peninsula, and visit the Community’s aquaculture hatchery for barramundi, pearl and trochus shell. We’ll also visit Kevin and Donna, traditional owners from One Arm Point who will tell us about their history and life on the peninsula. After lunch arrive at Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm to enjoy a pearl appreciation tour and then embark on an extraordinary cruise through the Islands of the Giant Tides.
