Kununurra in the Kimberley

The most amazing holiday destination in the World

Kununurra is the ideal place to base yourself if you would like to explore and enjoy the wonders of the East Kimberleys pristine wilderness region.

Kununurra is nearly as far North as you can go here in Western Australia and when here, you will see some of the most wonderful destinations and amazing scenery in this wild and wonderful land of ours.

You will be able to see the fantastic red river gorges, amazing rock formations, magnificent sandy beaches, beautiful ocean cliffs that drop to the Indian ocean and some truly beautiful pockets of rain forest. You will meet many of the friendly Aussie folks whose major problem, while quaffing a cold beer or two, will be telling you all about what there is to see, do and experience whilst in Kunna and the North West. They, like me love their town and this fantastic area and want to share it with you.

There is the dry, desert type country which is fascinating but there are also miles upon miles of grass covered plains and lovely patches of trees and forest out there, it is sometimes called "The Red Centre"

Kununurra, Western Australia is 3247km or 2017 miles North of Perth, (a fair old drive.) It is a very picturesque, modern town, situated directly in the middle of nowhere (actually it is situated in) one of the most beautiful, mysterious and adventurous regions on this entire planet of ours. The town is the gateway to the Eastern Kimberley, and one of the state's youngest towns.

My words alone, simply cannot describe what this town and the surrounding areas are like, although I will attempt to do so for you. So, just let your imagination wander for just a moment into a vast land filled with amazing tropical birds, waterfalls and plants, but then, contrasts into red desert country in the blink of your eye lid.

You will find Kununurra to be very friendly and welcoming and the locals are relaxed and only too pleased to help visitors. The town of is an ideal base from which to explore the Kimberley region before you slip into the Northern Territory.

It is an inland town situated in the rugged Kimberley area of Western Australia's North West tourist region.

Kununurra is surrounded by the spectacular scenery of the Ord River and Mirima National Park is close to both Lake Argyle and the state border with the Northern Territory.Celebrity Tree Park The Celebrity Tree Park is a delightful little grove on the shores of Lake Kununurra just west of the towns centre.

Various celebrities who have passed through the town have planted trees in this park. The park boasts a rich variety of native species including a huge baobab tree and next to the baobab, a paperbark gum it seems was so disgusted with the sign nailed to its trunk that it actually grew over it.
