Horizontal Falls

Cape Leveque


We were picked from our Caravan Park in Broome taken to the airport where we boarded their seaplane. We flew out over Willie Creek Pearl farm, Cape Leveque then on to Talbot Bay, there are about 1000 little Islands in the Bay; then we flew over the Horizontals Falls.

We landed near a pontoon/houseboat & boarded their boat which has two 350 ph motors. We travelled through the 1st fall its 20 metres wide & had a 1 metre drop and the 2nd fall is 7 metres wide with a 3 metre drop so we  couldn’t travel through it, we were a bit disappointed but them’s the breaks, it all depends on the tide whether you can go through the 2 falls. Back at the houseboat we had Barramundi for lunch. Every day they feed the local Sharks during the feeding Shell got to pat one of the sharks. We then went on a cruise around the bay then boarded the seaplane and flew back to Broome. Phill & I got a bit seeding on the plane flight but a great day was had by all.
