Fitzroy Crossing Vacation Guide
Fitzroy Crossing is a small town in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, 400 km east of Broome and 300 km west of Halls Creek. It is approximately 2,524 km from the state capital of Perth.
The town was gazetted in 1975, but had been shown on maps since 1903. It is 114 m above sea level and is situated on a low rise surrounded by the vast floodplains of the Fitzroy River. In 2006 the population of the Fitzroy Crossing town-site was approximately 1,500, with a further 2,000 or so people living in up to 50 aboriginal communities scattered throughout the Fitzroy Valley. About 80% of the Fitzroy Valley population were indigenous Australians with a split of closer to 60/40 (aboriginal/settler) in the townsite. Tourism, cattle stations and mining are the main industries in the area.
