Kimberley Australia Fishing Guide & Safari Camp
 Welcome to Freshwater Cove, also known traditionally as Winggingara Butt Butt.
Fresh Water Cove is without doubt a priceless hidden jewel, a majestic setting on indisputably the last great wilderness coastlines on this planet.
A very special place to spend your time in total isolation angling for a great variety of fish species in pristine waters. Famous football star and fishing show presenter Andrew Ettinghauser had this to say. "If remote fishing destinations is your thing then you must visit Fresh Water Cove, it is awesome". In 1995 Freshwater Cove was set up as a dedicated wilderness sports fishing safari camp. Since then a lucky few have experienced the awesome fishing in truly remote locations. Nearly all who visit leave with one comment:
"Don't tell anyone else about this magic place". Well, the secret is out. Not only is the Cove a fisherman's paradise, it is a true wilderness and cultural experience.
