Dampier Peninsula
The Dampier Peninsula is a remote area north of Broome. It is a special place offering many treats for the adventurous traveller, with spectacular unspoiled coastline, tranquil community settings and sleepy holiday retreats. You can swim in the sparkling waters, go snorkelling, mudcrabbing, fishing or simply relax and enjoy the wide open stretches of white sandy beaches.
Whilst on the Peninsula you are asked to respect the land, the culture and the privacy of local Aboriginal people. Although some communities and outstations have embraced tourism, access within the area is still restricted. As the Peninsula is home to a number of Aboriginal communities, there are opportunities to experience the culture and lifestyle. Learn about the traditional fishing and hunting techniques, of bush foods and medicines.
It is important you observe all no entry signs on private roads, to minimise visitor impact on law grounds, burial sights and traditional fishing grounds. Please drive slowly when entering communities and do not wander uninvited into residential areas.
Other attractions include Cape Leveque where you can settle into a comfortable safari tent and Beagle Bay which is the home to the Sacred Heart Church built by the Pallotine monks in 1917.
