Broome

Riding in a caravan along the beach at sunset is probably the most iconic experiences you can get in Broome. There are several companies operating the tours many times a day, so you can meet these magnificent animals and get a lift from them whenever it's convenient for you.

A natural treasure to Broome, this phenomenon occurs for three days during the full moon period, from March to October. Reflections from the moon stretch across the mud flats on very low tides creating the magnificent illusion of a long silver staircase. Tricky to photograph well, but breathtaking in person.

At Gantheaume Point you can view dinosaur footprints at low tides: they are believed to be more that 130 million years old. Here you can also witness the vivid red sandstone cliffs spilling into the sea. Relax in Anastasia’s Pool – a natural sea bath, modified by a former lighthouse keeper, to make it easy for his wife, Anastasia, to access. Anastasia suffered badly from arthritis and found relief in the warm water of the Indian Ocean which filled the pool at high tide. The man-made structure has been largely destroyed by a storm in 2014, but the romantic story keeps touching the hearts of locals and visitors alike.

At Chinatown’s Sun Pictures you can experience the world's oldest picture garden. Soak up the nostalgia sitting back in deck chairs at the world’s oldest operating open-air picture theatre and view the latest releases. While you no longer have to lift your feet as visitors did in the early days due to tidal flooding, a night at this rustic tin shack of a cinema is a delightful new experience for every cinephile. Tickets can be purchased when the doors open, about 30 mins before the first screening.

For everyone interested in war relics, in extremely low tides you can see the Dutch Flying Boat wrecks in Roebuck Bay. These airplanes were bombed by the Japanese in 1942. Start your walk across the mudflats from Town Beach about an hour before low tide and head southeast. The walk should take you about 30 minutes. Make sure to wear footwear to protect your feet from sharp shells and other sea creatures.

View some 310 species of migratory water birds on the shores of Roebuck Bay, considered to be one of the top sites in Australia. The 310 species include 50 species of shore birds.

Take one of the 22 kilometres of self-guided walk trails around this gorgeous park with sand dunes and scenic sea views. A prolific quantity of wildlife, bush flowers, fruits and seeds are constantly changing here from season to season.

To see this spectacle of nature you best book a guided tour with a local provider. Nicknamed the "Horries" and known as Garaanngaddim to the local Indigenous people, are an unusual natural phenomenon where tidal flows cause waterfalls on the ebb and flow of each tide.

There are a number of beautiful beaches to be found in Broome. Get ready for a relaxing day at the sea and soak up the sun until it gets dark. The best beaches with an amazing feel are Cable, Redell and Town Beaches.
