THINGS TO SEE IN DERBY
HERE ARE A FEW OF OUR FAVOURITE LOCAL ATTRACTIONS
Buccaneer Archipelago
Enjoy a sea safari or camp out under the stars on remote island beaches. Make sure that you take an aerial flight or boat trip to see the unique horizontal waterfalls, where the high tidal range of the area forces water to be fiercely sucked through openings between neighboring islands.
Gorges and Waterfalls
It is said that the real Australia begins at Derby. It is close to some interesting and unique natural attractions such as the fascinating Devonian Reef Gorges of Windjana and Tunnel Creek which are only a few hours away along the Gibb River Road or on a boat cruise along the rivers.
Gibb River Road
This road follows the Gibb River and leads to the National Parks containing spectacular gorges. Take your time to appreciate the area as you will be amazed at the diversity of native Australian wildlife and the raw peace and quiet will bring you into harmony with the natural surroundings.
River Systems
Derby is situated on a river delta at the base of King Sound. The mighty Fitzroy River feeds into the ocean to the West and the May, Meda and Lennard Rivers meet the ocean east of Derby. These are wild rivers, meandering through some of the most rugged terrain in Australia.
