Fishing in Admiralty Gulf is magnificent and your hosts will be delighted to show you the secrets of the waters. You’ll have access to huge tidal rivers, mangrove creeks, estuaries, offshore reefs and islands. There are also many deep-water options, offering up Barramundi, Mulloway, Trevally, Mackerel, Tuna, Coral Trout, Cod and Blue Bone. Mud crabs and oysters also inhabit these pristine waters. Operating on a catch and release basis, only those fish destined for the dinner table are retained from the day’s catch.
For those wishing to explore the beautiful and rugged countryside of the Kimberley, a half-hour walk from camp will take you to Mackerel Point; from here you can see the whole of Port Warrender and the nearby islands.
Other walks at Kimberley Coastal Camp will take you inland through wild terrain. Some of the species of birds that frequent the area include Great Billed Heron, Chestnut Rails, Grey Goshawks, Brown Tailed Flycatchers, Little Terns and Sea Eagles. You may also view some of the wildlife in their natural habitat including crocodiles, Rock Wallabies and quolls.
The north Kimberley is home to some of the oldest known rock paintings, including the beautiful Bradshaw paintings dated at over 23,000 years old and representing a culture now lost in time.
Getting to the Camp is half the fun: included in the price is a scenic light aircraft flight to the famous Mitchell Plateau over a mosaic of mangrove lined creeks, breathtaking gorges, rivers and water falls. The final leg of the trip is an exhilarating helicopter transfer to the hideaway.
