A Guide to the Dampier Peninsula

Stretching 220 kilometres north east of Broome along the Cape Leveque Road, the Dampier Peninsula is the perfect getaway for the adventurous traveller, nature enthusiast or those looking for a secluded beachfront escape.

Ardi can be literally translated to a direction “Northeast” in the ancient Bardi language but is perhaps better understood as a journey. This journey up the peninsula has been regularly taken by people from the Broome area for thousands of years. It is a journey through seven language groups connected by ‘songlines’ which eventually leads to the tip of the peninsula and the incredible Kimberley Coast.
