Faraway Bay Activities
Bird watching, fishing, exploring ancient rock art, bush walking, star gazing and boating are just some of the amazing activities available at Faraway Bay – all inclusive. Go swimming in an inland water hole, shower under a massive waterfall, sit on a cliff top overlooking the Timor Sea, catch an elusive barramundi – relax in tune with nature.

Birdwatching
Faraway Bay is a paradise for birdwatchers. Everyone thrills to the daily experience of breakfast with the resident sea eagles and brahminy kites. Over 140 varieties of birds have been recorded to date with exciting sightings made by avid birdwatchers and regular visitors alike. Rainbow bee-eaters escort your 4WD as you make the initial journey from the airstrip to The Bush Camp, Jabiru patrol the beaches, blue-winged kookaburras flash past the kapok trees as you cool off under your alfresco shower and tiny double barred finches take communal baths in a clam shell.

Aboriginal Rock Art
The Faraway Bay area appears to have been a Mecca for Ice Age painters and we think it offers some of the most diverse examples of the mysterious Bradshaw rock art in Australia. Kimberley Specialists' archaeologist Lee Scott-Virtue and Traditional Owner Ju Ju Wilson have worked together for years at Faraway Bay in an attempt to resolve the fascinating riddle of this intriguing art. Our experienced guide, Steve, has spent over 15 years in the Kimberley and seven at Faraway Bay and guided and accompanied some of Australia's top archaeologists and scientists, taking them to significant sites across the region.

Fishing
Fishing enthusiasts will find a countless variety of challenges with reef, bottom, bait-casting, ocean sport and estuary fishing. A full range of equipment is available and regular fishing tours are conducted with our experienced guides. Once we have caught one for the table we release the rest.

Bushwalking
At Faraway Bay you will encounter nature at her most immaculate. Everything appears refreshingly real and larger than life and with kilometres of coastline and seemingly endless horizons, the beach and the bush implore you to explore. Head overland by 4WD to bathe in lily -lined billabongs, while birds and butterflies flit overhead. Maybe you will spot a dingo, a family of brolgas or one of the other 140 species of birds that have been identified locally. Take a picnic lunch to a secluded beach where you can wander marvelling at the shells and coral or just lay back and soak up the solitude.

Star Gazing
We think Faraway Bay is simply one of the best places in the world for stargazing. As there is no artificial light for 100's of kilometres, we have pure night skies and with our high quality telescope you can explore the infinite depths and beauty of the Southern Hemisphere well into the night. As the moon rises over the bay what better place to contemplate its mystery, its pull on the Earths oceans, our significance, the universe.
