Wyndham

Wyndham, Western Australia's most northerly town in the Kimberley Region. The town grew as a port for the East Kimberly goldfields and after the decline in gold remained as a port for the pastorial industry and mining. Today Iron Ore and Nickel are exported from Wyndham Port.
The Bastion Ranges 350mtrs above sea level provide a spectacular backdrop to Wyndham.
The five Rivers lookout, aptly named as five rivers flow into the Cambridge Gulf - (King, Ord, Durack, Forrest, and Pentecost). From the lookout are stunning views over the surrounding mudflats (tidal flats) and ranges. We enjoyed a b-b-q then watched the sunset.
