Unforgettable Kimberley: RV Journey Through WA's Outback

RV Kimberley guide: Gibb River Road's best gorges, camping, and WA outback.


our guide to RVing the Kimberley's iconic Gibb River Road, packed with stunning gorges, wild camping, and outback adventures.

Sun-drenched days, dramatic landscapes, cascading waterfalls and refreshing swimming holes – the 660-kilometre Gibb River Road is always full of surprises even for regular visitors.

We've been visiting this part of the world for three decades, and this time our starting point is Broome, where the red dirt meets the enormous Indian Ocean's 10-plus-metre tides. It's a Kimberley town favourite for its laid-back atmosphere, stunning coastline, and the Staircase to the Moon phenomenon. But the pearling history, cosmopolitan cuisine, and beach sunsets are also our calling card. From Broome, it's a little more than 200 kilometres to the western end of the Gibb River Road – affectionately dubbed 'the Gibb'.
