The Fortescue Falls seem like a tropical oasis in the middle of the remote and desert-like Pilbara region. The visual contrast of bright red rocks, clear water and blue sky above is impressive. The falls are one of the few that carry water practically all year round.

A beautiful waterfall that falls down into the Dales Gorge. A nice place to stay or to bathe, but the stones are very smooth in the water.
