The Kimberley

Gorges cut so deep into ancient rock that some have never been fully mapped, tides on the coast strong enough to create waterfalls that reverse direction, and Aboriginal rock art tens of thousands of years old still marking the caves.
The best time to visit The Kimberley is May–Sep, when typical daytime highs reach about 33°C (91°F).
