Any Broome holiday is typically packed with activities, amazing places to see and nature to explore. However, unless you’re on an open ended trip, you may struggle to fit everything into your holiday. So, here we’ll explore some things that you need to ensure you don’t miss on your Broome tour.

Cable Beach

No Broome holiday packages are complete without spending some time at Cable Beach. This amazing stretch of golden sand takes its name from the cable laid between Broome and Java in 1889 to connect the North West of Australia to the rest of the world via the telegraph. Cable beach is a fantastic place to relax and recharge your batteries, but if you’re really limited for time, be sure to check out the sunset over Cable Beach. This is considered one of the most spectacular sights in Australia. If you have more time, you can take a camel ride or even set up on the white sand for a picnic.

Horizontal Falls

Horizontal Falls has been called one of the greatest wonders in the natural world by David Attenborough, so it is definitely a must for Broome tours. This can be done by land, sea or air, but be sure your tour includes Beagle Bay, One Arm Point or Cape Leveque.

Gantheaume Point

While Gantheaume Point is only a 10 minute drive from the Broome town centre, it should not be missed on your tour. You can even walk the six kilometres along Cable Beach to reach this fantastic spot. Gantheaume Point offers a stunning and unique landscape. You’ll see the white sandy beach, red rock cliffs, a beautiful lighthouse, and dolphins swimming. If you visit at low tide, you may even spot the dinosaur footprint, which is thought to be 130 million years old.

Broome Bird Observatory

Whether you enjoy nature or a keen bird watcher, this globally unique spot provides an amazing experience. Broome Bird Observatory is in Roebuck Bay, 24 kilometres from Broome. It’s dedicated to shorebird conservation, and approximately 150,000 birds visit each year.

Cape Leveque

Cape Leveque is 240 kilometres north of Broome, but it is well worth including in Broome holidays. You can arrange a tour or rent a car to make the journey. Cape Leveque is the perfect place to experience the unique wilderness camping of the region. There are ideal spots for swimming in the Indian Ocean, fishing, snorkelling or simply relaxing. This is a great spot to start your holiday experience in the Kimberley.

Look to the Stars

Finally, don’t forget to look up during your Broome tours. The lack of light pollution and the rugged nature of Broome and the Kimberley region allows you to get a fantastic view of the stars. There are even astronomy tours where you can look through powerful telescopes to explore new details of the universe.
