Kimberley sunrise

Dawn is often characterised by a magnificent sunrise which illuminates the sky with magical hues of radiant gold, bright orange, and smoky purple. As fiery light gradually reveals the landscape, the region’s unmistakable bottle-shaped boab trees with their tangle of twisted branches gradually take on solid form. To witness these beautiful trees backlit by an awe-inspiring sunrise is to experience the unique essence of the Kimberley.
