Australia is big... really big! This vast island continent could swallow up Europe whole, with room to spare. For some 50,000 years, a tiny Aboriginal population lived here in harmony with the untamed primal wilderness, undisturbed by the outside world until European colonisers arrived, spearheaded by Lieutenant James Cook in 1770. Since then Australia has flourished, and now makes her presence felt around the world, thanks in large part to the boundless enthusiasm and resourcefulness of her people, the outgoing, energetic descendants of convicts, gold miners, explorers, traders and adventurous settlers down the centuries.

To the Wunambal, the Wandjina is the supreme Creator, as well as a symbol of fertility and rain who comes to the Kimberley every wet season in order to bring life. The Wandjina is unique to the Kimberley and many of the Wandjina art sites are still repainted each year as a tradition which reconnects the Wunambal to their Creator.

Continue on to Prince Regent Nature Reserve, a protected area only accessible by boat, recognised as a national biodiversity hotspot. Next, it’s on to the untouched coastal area of Hanover Bay.
