cable beach broome1)    Staircase to The Moon
This natural phenomenon occurs only from March to October for three days a month. At low tide, Staircase to the moon is always celebrated with great entertainment and markets in the area. Staircase to the Moon is best seen from Roebuck Bay, where the moon rises over the mudflats at low tide. If you are lucky enough to stay at Moonlight Bay Suites overlooking Roebuck Bay, you might just be able to see it from your own room!

2)    Relax On Cable Beach
One of the most famous beaches in the world, Cable Beach is a 22km stretch of pristine white sand unlike anywhere you have seen before. There is plenty to do along Cable Beach including the famous camel rides at sunset, jump in a 4WD and head north along the coast, have a swim (in the dry season only!), dinner and drinks at Zanders or Cable Beach Sunset Bar and plenty more. For you exercise fanatics, there are even classes at Cable Beach you can attend.

3)    See Horizontal FallsSee Horizontal Falls
According to Trip Advisor, Horizontal Falls is currently ranked #1 as the top thing to do while visiting Broome. This stunning attraction is located in the Buccaneer Archipelago, within Talbot Bay. The awesome waterfall effect is created by massive tidal movements as the water builds up against one side of the passage and again when the tide turns.


The water builds up in front of the twin gaps faster than it can flow through so this leads to up to a 4m high waterfall between the bays, amazing!

4)    Drop into Matso’s For a Mango Beer
The Kimberley’s own craft beer king, Matso’s Broome Brewery. Stop in and visit the 100 year old building and enjoy their award-winning brews like the famous Mango Beer, Ginger Beer or their new cider range. Meals and love music also make this place ideal for lazy lunches and dinners on the weekend.

5)    Visit The Courthouse Markets
The heart of Broome comes alive every weekend at the Broome Courthouse Markets. Whether you love art, photography, jewellery, clothes, great music, good food or just a chat with the locals, you will find a piece of Broome to take home with you. The markets run from 8am – 1pm every Saturday and 8am – 1pm every Sunday during the wet season (Easter weekend to October).

6)    Gantheaume Point
Where the turquoise water hits the pindan rocks and one of the most stunning views in Broome, Gantheaume Point is a must see on your Broome to-do list. Take a wander around and see the dinosaur footprints at low tide, or Anastasia’s Pool.

7)    See a Move at Sun Cinemas
Experience a movie under the stars or if you prefer air-conditioning you can go to the indoor cinemas – the choice is yours!

8)    Malcolm Douglas Wilderness Park
Enter another world just outside of Broome. Sixteen kilometres from the town of Broome, Malcolm Douglas has developed a new wildlife park and animal refuge. Experience the famous crocodile feeding and travel along the winding paths through the stunning wilderness.

9)    Visit Roebuck Bay
While Cable Beach is famous for its sprawling stretch of white sand, Roebuck Bay is just as gorgeous and also home to Green Turtles, rare Snubfin dolphins and Dugongs. They feed regularly on the seagrass meadows in Roebuck Bay. It is also where Broome locals and visitors can view the stunning Staircase to the Moon during the dry season.

10)    Dive into The Pearling Industry
Head in to Chinatown to see the great pearl luggers on Dampier Terrace, or go on a tour to the Willie Creek Pearl Farm. At Willie Creek you can also experience a scenic helicopter ride over the stunning estuary which is ever changing due to the tides. There is so much to learn about the pearling industry which is a large part of the foundation of Broome’s history.
