Horizontal Falls
Garaanngaddim
This pair of Australian "waterfalls" appear to be falling straight across the land, created by massive Kimberley tides rushing through two narrow gorges in Talbot Bay, Western Australia.

šŸ“œ Unusual natural phenomenon in Western Australia, known as Garaanngaddim by local Indigenous people.
šŸ” Tidal flows create a waterfall effect up to 4 metres high as seawater rushes through narrow gorges.

Why Go

🌊 Unique natural wonder, called "one of the greatest wonders of the natural world" by David Attenborough
🚤 Stunning water adventure, passage of boats possible
āœˆļø Most stunning view from the air

Why Avoid

āš ļø Remote location, accessible only by sea and air
🚫 Boat trips through the gaps ceased from 2026 due to dangers and sacred significance
🐊 Presence of box jellyfish and estuarine crocodiles

Tips

šŸ‘€ Visitors can still journey up to the entrance point to experience tidal movements and rock formations.
