Short description of Broome

Broome is a tropical coastal town in northwestern Australia and a fascinating blend of nature, culture, and pearling history. The town is famous for the 22-kilometre-long Cable Beach, with its white sand, spectacular sunsets, and iconic camel rides, as well as the natural phenomenon known as the “Staircase to the Moon” over the tidal flats of Roebuck Bay. Broome combines the multicultural heritage of its historic pearling industry with the dramatic landscapes of the Kimberley and a relaxed tropical atmosphere. Around 130-million-year-old dinosaur footprints along the coast and the vast Indian Ocean make Broome an extraordinary gateway to Australia’s remote northwest.
