The turquoise water of Talbot Bay (Ganbadba) and the fast-moving tidal current squeezes through two narrow gorges of the McLarty Range, pushing the water into rapid like formations which rush through the twin gaps at an astonishing rate, producing waterfalls turned on their side. The powerful tides in the Kimberley can reach more than 10 metres and the direction of the flow reverses ensuring the water flows two different ways each day.
The white waters are thrilling to see up close and awe-inspiring to view from the air. Join a scenic flight and land in Talbot Bay or day cruise to the Horizontal Falls from Cygnet Bay, Broome or Derby to see and experience it for yourself.
Nicknamed 'the Horries' and known as Garaanngaddim to the Aboriginal community, the Horizontal Falls are located in the Lang-garram / Horizontal Falls Marine Park.
The North Lalang-garram Marine Park lies between Lalang-garram / Camden Sound Marine Park and the North Kimberley Marine Park and covers about 110,000 hectares.
Please read the Dambimangari Visitor Code of Conduct when planning a visit to Dambimangari country.
Lalang-garram is a Dambimangari name that evokes the saltwater as a spiritual place of great natural abundance.
