Wyndham - Fast Facts

Wyndham
Exotic and unusual isolated town in the far north of Western Australia.
Wyndham, Western Australia's most northerly town, is about as isolated as any town in Australia can be. It sits on the edge of the Cambridge Gulf slowly boiling under the oppressive tropical sun, surrounded by salt lakes, desert and mudflats which stretch to the horizon. It is located 3351 km from Perth via the North West Coastal Highway and 930 km from Derby.

It is, like so many of the towns in the Kimberleys, actually two towns. There is old Wyndham (known as Wyndham Port) sweltering in the heat under that part of the Erskine Range known as 'The Bastion' and, a few kilometres up the Gulf on the road to Kunanurra there is Wyndham Three Mile (sometimes known as Wyndham East).
