Camballin

Camballin is a small town in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. It is located just off the Great Northern Highway, otherwise known as the Savannah Way, midway between Derby and Fitzroy Crossing.

It services the aboriginal settlement of Looma closed to visitors and the vast Liveringa Station, but is best known as a step off point for the best Barramundi fishing within the Fitzroy River .

The Western Australian government dammed a section of the Fitzroy River in the 1960's as a means of irrigating the areas surrounding Camballin for rice cultivation. The weir created is known locally as The Barrage.

Oh, and the area is also very well patronaged by fresh water and estuarine salt water crocodiles.
