At the mouth of the King George River, is Faraway Bay. Northeast of Faraway Bay is the Kalumburu Aboriginal mission. This is a truly remote area of the Kimberley. It offers ancient rock art, archaeological and historical sites, abundant fresh and salt water fishing and an abundance of unique wildlife.
