Sir David Attenborough calls them "one of the greatest natural wonders of the world" – and the surging waters of Garaan-ngaddim Horizontal Falls must be seen to be believed. Set in Talbot Bay, amid the Buccaneer Archipelago, this Kimberley coastal wonder is not only breathtaking in its natural beauty but deeply significant to its Traditional Owners.
Garaan-ngaddim is mamaa – a powerful, sacred place for the Dambeemangaddee people and a registered Aboriginal sacred site. Visitors are asked to be quiet and respectful in this Country.
Formed by some of the largest tidal movements on Earth, massive volumes of water squeeze through two narrow cliff passages of the McLarty Range, creating the unique sideways waterfall effect. Experience this phenomenon on a low-flying scenic flight or boat ride from Broome, Derby or Cygnet Bay.
