Broome, Broome, Broome

Tourist mecca of the north west - Broome.

Beaches and bays, Coles and Woolies - they are all here.


Our camp was in the town and on the bay - not the best equipped, but certainly the best located of the caravan parks in the town. If you are looking to spend more time at Cable Beach there are other options, but this one worked for us. It was a short walk to Town Beach, best placed for 'Stairway to the Moon', and not far from most other venues.

Want to buy some souvenirs?

This is the place. Galleries galore and plenty of pearls - all you need is money! A Tahitian pearl necklace came cheap at just under $1,000. Cheaper options were available but earrings are just not my style.

Us...well we just enjoyed the environment and even took time for a swim (around high tide!)

Along the way we visited Broome Bird Observatory, and managed to spot some whales (a long way off), some dolphins (just off Town Beach), and a turtle - along with the the usual selection of macropods.
