Kimberley Main Attractions


The Horizontal falls phenomenon in Talbot Bay, Kimberley

Horizontal Falls

Horizontal Falls, located in the heart of Talbot Bay, is a natural phenomenon where the region’s massive tides create a unique and dramatic waterfall effect between two narrow gorges. As the tide rushes in and out, water builds up on one side faster than it can flow through, creating temporary “horizontal waterfalls." This spectacle is best experienced by boat, offering an exhilarating ride through the surging waters. Surrounded by the rugged Kimberley landscape, Horizontal Falls is a must-see attraction, showcasing the region’s raw and untamed natural beauty.
