The Dampier Peninsula is a delight for travellers seeking a real
Kimberley experience that is culturally rewarding in a beautiful
environment. As we journey north, travellers will learn all about the
area’s fascinating place in Australia’s history. Enjoy morning tea in
the Beagle Bay Aboriginal Community, home to the Sacred Heart Church and
its glimmering pearl shell altar. Completed in 1918, this ‘Mother of
Pearl Church’ is inspired by German architecture and a team of
Aboriginal women worked under the direction of a German priest to
decorate the interior with mother of pearl, cowrie, voulte and olive
snail shells to create a unique mosaic that features the totum symbols
of the Nyul Nyul, Nimanborr and Bardi people as well as Christian
symbols.

We then travel north to the Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm. The only working
pearl farm open to the public, Cygnet Bay offers an insight into the
history and cultivation of the world’s finest pearls during Pearl Farm
Tour. Relax and enjoy a delightful lunch prepared by the chef at Cygnet
Bay’s licensed restaurant, overlooking the turquoise waters of King
Sound. In the afternoon you will board a high speed vessel for a truly
remarkable experience on the Kimberley Coast. As we cruise through the
Sunday Island group of the Buccaneer Archipelago the enormous power of
the tide is on display in the form of whirlpools and standing waves.
Your experienced skipper provides fascinating insights into this extreme
tropical environment and how this not only affects the people of the
Kimberley Coast but also how it powers the Australian pearling industry.
We then reboard the vehicle for our journey back to Broome, arriving at approximately 6.30pm
