cape leveque印象

Loved Cape Leveque! Owned by the traditional owners, providing great jobs for the community. Service was excellent. Natural beauty was spectacular! Long corrugated road but easy in a 4WD.

Seeing brown cliffs with blue water in a quiet location after a long drive from Broome is an amazing sight.Pure serenity set amongst a remote location must be seen to be believed

Whether you are Australian or an International visitor, if you are travelling to Broome and the Kimberley then make the effort to get up to Cape Leveque. You will need a 4WD to get there but it is one of the most stunning places in the country. Words and pictures cannot describe sitting atop the Pindan Cliffs at sunrise and sunset, watching the changing colours of the sky, the ocean and the cliffs. We camped at the Whalesong Café campsite for four nights and were well looked after by Jacinta & Lenny. The shower & toilet are unique. A camp fire at night was no problem. Sitting on the café verandah with coffee & cake after a morning fishing or beach walking, watching whales playing in Pender Bay is a memory that will last the rest of my life. Make sure you stop and go into the church at Beagle Bay. The altar is made from mother of pearl shells and is beautiful. The fishing is good and there is reasonable snorkelling at Middle Lagoon but ... a word of caution. Crocs are regularly in the area so take advice from the locals before you think about going in the water.

We were travelling on a budget and camping out. Had heard lots of wonderful reports about Cape Leveque over the years, so decided to check it out. After 200km of corrugated dirt road(some tar towards the end) we finally arrived, to be confronted by a sign saying, privately owned-all visitors must check in, and a large fancy building. We were aghast! All that way over a horrible road and we had to pay to see Cape Leveque-couldn't believe it! We turned around and left. Cape Leveque is actually a privately owned resort named Kooljamin and you have to pay to get in to see the view, the beach, and experience whatever Cape Leveque has to offer. Travellers we met on our trip had the same reaction, but they went in and paid because they wanted to fish. When they went to take their car in with all their fishing gear they were told that they had to go on foot. So they asked for their money back and left. It seems that there are some places in Australia that only the rich can enjoy.

Although the trip was on a rough road to get there, it was absolutely beautiful and a truly magnificent part of Australia. Without doubt this was one of our highlights to visiting Western Australia. We were told by others who had visited this area that you cannot miss it. We spent two days there in the Safari Tents and enjoyed the area. The views and beaches are breath taking and you cannot explain this raw beauty of this landscape.We did not camp in the sites but in the family safari tents. We were a little disappointed in some aspects of this accomodation. You must take your own mosquito repellent because on dusk and early morning the mossies were quite fierce. The first night we stayed we had no water and we had to get in our car and drive up to the loacl restaurant to ask for some assistance to find someone who may be able to help. The next night we ran out of gas cooking our BBq on the deck half way through and had to go to the next camp tent and cook on their bbq to finish dinner. The toilet was quite dirty and I did mention this when we left and was told it was the water. Our neighbours toilet was not dirty. As the water seems to come from underground there are some issues. When I woke up I went to make a cup of tea and when I looked inside the kettle it was caked with white powder and flaking calcified chunks which floated in the water. If this is a problem perhaps these need to be replaced every few months. As the cost of renting one of these tents is quite expensive there needed to be a little more quality control by management.($250+ per night) We also felt that some maintenance like wiping down mould on verandah areas is just a part of living in the north and after the wet season there should have been some general maintenance that was sadly overlooked.I think this resort is in such a beautiful part of Australia they have relied on this to charge their prices and they know they have a captured market in the tourism industry because of how remote and special this area is.As we spent three weeks in Western Australia this was the only place we stayed in where there were issues with our accomodation. The area is without doubt all those things people have raved about... a touch of paradise!... Absolutely special and you must make the effort to go there.

This was a good trip but if I was doing it again, I would choose the option of staying at Cape Leveque and coming back the next day. However, we visited Beagle Bay community, another community which runs a barramundi hatchery, Cygnet Pearl Farm (beautiful!) and they are building accommodation & a pool there. Cape Leveque was wonderful with red rocks and beautiful beaches. We watched the sunset of west beach but didn't get back to Broome until 9.30, over mostly unsealed roads.

Great day trip in the wild remote Dampier Peninsula to Cape Leveque' beautiful beaches, and visits to Communities along the way, if you do not want to take your own vehicle on these roads then we recommend this Company.Ross our driver and tour guide did a fine job for us all on this day trip and got us back home safely along bumpy but beautiful red dirt roads for 90kls of the 200 kls.

Travelling to Cape Leveque was interesting, the gravel road was variable, some of it good and wide, but then closed down to a one lane road with high sides, plus a lot of dust.Kooljamon was well worth the drive, the powered sites ok, we were too near the amenities and felt after a couple of days we knew everyone! the amenities were clean and water good.There were several options of accommodation, the un-powered sites overlooked the ocean and not far from the amenities.One Arm Point is a great place to visit, the Hatchery interesting, Cygnet Bay is one place if you want to buy a very expensive Pearl.
