Two giant viewing platforms stretch out over a 100m drop into the gorge. Not for the faint-hearted — but totally worth it!
Cruise or Canoe the Murchison River
Kayak through calm waters or hop on a river cruise and let someone else steer while you relax with a camera in hand.
Relax at Blue Holes Beach
A local favourite for a reason — snorkel in protected reef pools or chill on the sand and watch the waves roll in.
See the Wildflowers Bloom (Seasonal)
From July to October, the Kalbarri region bursts into colour with over 1,100 wildflower species. A nature lover’s dream.
Go Whale Watching (Seasonal)
