Wyndham is a town in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, with a population of 914 in 2021. This far northern Kimberley outpost is over 3000 km from the state capital Perth, twice its distance from Bali. That means it has a tropical monsoon climate, with a dry season April-Oct, and the rest of the year is a downpour that only the crocs enjoy.

Housed in the old Courthouse building, the volunteer-run museum has a range of historical artefacts, documents and photos. Opening hours are erratic.
The 6-lane, 25-metre pool and two toddler pools are shaded from the sun and a fun place to do a bombie on the local kids.
Smart well-run park near village.
Four rooms amid tropical gardens.
Good reviews for this away-from-it-all resort and caravan park open May-Aug: the dirt road may not be passable in the wet. It has aircon cabins, rooms and naturally ventilated camp sites.
A working cattle station away down a dirt road, 4WD essential. Great setting and welcome, watch the work in the cattle yard and join the organised bush walking, horse riding and fishing.
Ten upmarket suites on the Chamberlain River. You need 4WD to get here.
Well-stocked supermarket, prices high but reasonable for the location.
Wyndham is 100 km from Kununurra by road. Great Northern Highway is a good sealed road branching off Victoria Highway at Cockburn.
