Careening Bay, traditionally known as Wunbung-gu, lies along the remote northern coast of Western Australia’s Kimberley region. The bay is historically famous for the “Mermaid Boab Tree,” carved by early explorers in the 1820s. Its calm waters and scenic coastline make it an important stop for expedition cruises.
Nearby, the Prince Regent River flows through one of Australia’s most untouched wilderness areas. Surrounded by steep sandstone cliffs, rainforest pockets, and waterfalls, the river is home to diverse wildlife including crocodiles, birds, and marine species.
The region holds deep cultural significance for Indigenous communities and remains one of the most visually spectacular landscapes in Australia.
