And most of them are so unusual and ridiculously cool like these <strong>horizontal falls in Australia<\/strong> that we have option but to be awestruck!<!--more--> Up until now, you must have only seen vertical waterfalls falling from a cliff. Talbot Bay, located on the coast of Kimberley, is where you will find Australia\u2019s most unusual natural wonder. Nicknamed as \u2018Horries\u2019, these are the only horizontal waterfalls to exist on the planet earth. How cool, right?<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>About Horizontal Waterfalls In Australia<\/h2>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/horizontal-waterfall.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-122038\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/horizontal-waterfall.jpg\" alt=\"horizontal waterfall\" width=\"700\" height=\"525\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/c1.staticflickr.com\/7\/6205\/6147415554_e3d3e39f96_b.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another trick up nature\u2019s sleeve, these unusual waterfalls are the result of <strong>unique tidal movements<\/strong> when the turquoise water squeezes through two narrow gorges. The water banks up on one side of the cliff of the McLarty Range and flows through a short passageway in a rapid speed creating a waterfall-like appearance. You will also notice that these waterfalls turn sideways.<\/p>\n<p><em>The coolness doesn\u2019t end here, guys!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Every day, when the tide turns, the water begins to flow in the opposite direction. So the falls are not just horizontal, they are \u2018<strong>reversible<\/strong>\u2019 too. Say what?!<\/p>\n<h2>Can you wade through these absolutely staggering horizontal falls in Australia?<\/h2>\n<p>Yes, you absolutely can. In fact, many tour operators in Kimberley, Australia organize boat trips to the horizontal waterfall which they call a \u2018trip of your lifetime\u2019. If you do not like wobbly boat rides, you can join the seaplane tours to witness this rare phenomenon.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Reach Horizontal Falls in Australia?<\/h2>\n<p>If you are wondering how to get to Horizontal Falls, the only way is by boat. There is no road access to Talbot Bay of Kimberley Region (Western Australia) where the falls are located. It is 110 km north west of Derby and 220 km north west of Broome. The only way to reach Kimberly is via road. The nearest airport is Broome International Airport which is connected via flights from all parts. From here, you can hire a car.<\/p>\n<p>The time-saving way would be to book a Horizontal Falls tour from Derby or Broome which will fly you in a seaplane over the falls from Derby\/Broome and even take you on a cruise to Talbot Bay.<\/p>\n<h2>Horizontal Falls Map<\/h2>\n<p><em>Intrigued much?<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Further Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/zip-lining-over-niagara-falls\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Rip-Roaring Zip-lining Over Niagara Falls Is Back.
