Highlights

Our Dampier Peninsula all day tour allows you to explore the Dampier Peninsula in luxury - with the only tour company offering an on board toilet on the coach! Visit Aboriginal communities and see the famous pearl shell altar at Beagle Bay's Sacred Heart church. Visit Cygnet Bay and enjoy a tour of the Pearl Farm, followed by a chef prepared plated lunch. Learn about Aboriginal culture and marvel at the sights of the stunning Dampier peninsula. Enjoy a visit to One Arm Point to see their Trochus Shell Hatchery* and visit the community. Return to Broome by early evening. *Please note that due to cyclone damage, the hatchery is unable to host guests at this time. While the hatchery undergoes repairs, we still visit the community to enjoy the views and admire the range of locally-made arts and crafts. Why not upgrade to ultimate luxury by taking a scenic plane ride back to Broome instead of by coach?

  • 5Awesome experince

    This was a brilliant experience, Claudio and Lillian were awesome, personable and very experienced and knowledgeable guides. Everything from the pick up, the tour, the snacks, food, and drop off were all excellent. Fully recommend and I would do other tours with them (in fact we were so happy with the one afternooon Broome tour, that we booked this one for the next full day). Tony & Judy

  • 5Best ever tour

    Thanks Claudia and Lillian for a great tour to the remote Dampian area. Your knowledge that you shared with us, your sense of humour, a lovely morning and afternoon tea as well as a great Barramundi lunch at Cygnet Bay made for a great day. This is by far the best tour I have ever done. Once again thanks Claudia and Lillian.

  • 5Excellent tour to the Dampier peninsula

    I enjoyed a lovely day tour with Lillian and Claudio from Pinnacle Tours, who took us up the Dampier Peninsula. We visited Beagle Bay and the famous Shell Church. Our next stop was Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm and a lovely lunch and then on to One Arm Point. Our last stop was to visit the aboriginal community of Lombidina. Lillian’s commentary was very informative, I learnt a lot and Claudio’s coach driving was excellent. I recommend this tour with Lillian and Claudio.

  • 5A great experience in remote Australia.

    This was a great day trip into a remote part of Australia that is so beautiful. We were royally treated by our guide and driver who had us laughing and fed us delicious food for morning and afternoon tea. The lunch at Cygnet Bay pearls was great with a wonderful view out over the ocean.

  • 5One Day Dampier Peninsula tour

    We had an amazing tour with Lillian and Claudio to the Dampier Peninsula. Beagle Bay's Sacred Heart Church was spectacular with its mother of pearl decorations. At Cygnet Bay we learnt heaps about the amazing Pearling history of Australia's oldest operating pearl farm. We also enjoyed a delicious barramundi lunch. The tour also included visits to several remote Aboriginal communities where we learnt about their arts, crafts and culture. The scenery was spectacular and our experiences unforgetable. Thank you Lillian and Claudio for sharing your amazing knowledge of the Dampier Peninsula.

About Broome

Broome is a pearling town on the Kimberley coast of Western Australia, known for camel trains on Cable Beach, red cliffs and enormous tides.

Broome sits on a red-earth peninsula between Roebuck Bay and the Indian Ocean, a pearling port since the 1880s whose Chinatown streets still hold pearl shops and old tin-roofed buildings. Divers from Japan, China, Malaya and the Philippines worked the luggers here, and the Japanese cemetery records the men who died at sea. Sun Pictures, an open-air cinema dating from 1916, still shows films under the stars.

Top-ranked sights in Broome: Cable Beach, Horizontal Falls, Gantheaume Point.
