Best of Lake Argyle
Discover the very best of Australia’s largest freshwater lake on this unforgettable full-day adventure. The Best of Lake Argyle Cruise is the ultimate way to experience the vast beauty, rich history and remarkable wildlife of Lake Argyle, covering up to 120 kilometres of spectacular scenery across the lake’s northern and southern reaches.
Cruise through rugged sandstone landscapes, secluded bays and island-dotted waterways as your experienced skipper shares fascinating stories about the lake, its creation and its important role in the East Kimberley. Along the way, you’ll encounter an abundance of wildlife, from wallabies and freshwater crocodiles to the incredible birdlife that thrives in the lake’s southern wetlands, where thousands of birds can gather at certain times of the year. Binoculars are provided to help you make the most of every sighting.
Step ashore on a remote island to search for the famous Zebra Rock, a unique stone found only in the Lake Argyle region and renowned for its distinctive striped patterns. Cruise past the submerged site of the historic Argyle Downs Homestead while learning about the pioneering Durack family and the pastoral history that shaped the East Kimberley.
As the afternoon unfolds, enjoy the ever-changing colours reflected across the lake near Monsmont Island, widely regarded as one of the best sunset locations on Lake Argyle. Indulge in delicious local produce, relax with complimentary beer, wine, champagne or soft drinks, and finish the day with a refreshing swim in the warm waters of the lake as the Kimberley sunset paints the sky.
This is an authentic Kimberley experience that showcases the heart and soul of Lake Argyle. Leaving from either Lake Argyle or Kununurra.
