Things to do in Broome, Western Australia: The Best Nature & Parks

July 10, 2021 Darwin Bolte

The beaches of tropical Broome aren’t just beautiful—they’re historic. The white-sand Cable Beach is named for an undersea telegraph cable that was laid in the late 1800s, connecting Broome to Singapore. A short hop over the dunes is Minyirr Park, and, on the eastern shore, Town Beach is home to a famous natural phenomenon, the Staircase to the Moon. Time-travel to the prehistoric era by heading to Gantheaume Point to check out 130-million-year-old dinosaur footprints.

Had a fabulous time at BBO when we visited recently for a few days. Bird watching can be done from the camp kitchen/shade house as the birds come to the bird baths or short walks around the property and down to the sea shore. We also went on a great bird 'safari' with the warden and assistant warden onto the 'plains'. The facilities were great for campers with partially shaded spots, great showers etc. A friendly crew of mainly volunteers look after the place and guests.

Reddell Beach

Reviewed By Marshase - Perth, Australia

For the hiking ambitious people like us, a beautiful walk from Cable Beach ending then at Entrance point (about 12k). There were hardly any people around, the blue water with a red stone backdrop makes a beautiful picture as in paradise. we really loved the scenery. Hubbie was keen to find some dinosaur tracks but there are no signs at all, so we haven't been successful
