Broome is Western Australia’s secret hideaway and is recognised as the gateway to the vast Kimberley Region. With beautiful beaches, luxury accommodation, budget hostels and fantastic things to do in Broome will make it a perfect holiday destination. The accommodation resorts around Broome now have international recognition for their excellence and there are also hotels, apartments and backpacker hostels to choose from. It is situated in far north Western Australia roughly 2.5hrs flight from Perth.

Before Broome was famous for Cable Beach and camel rides at sunset, it was known as one of the world's great pearling ports. And before there were pearlers, there were dinosaurs. At nearby Gantheaume Point, at the southern end of Cable Beach, fossilised dinosaur footprints are embedded in the craggy, red rocks overlooking the ocean. In fact, much of the Kimberley feels prehistoric. From the humbling Windjana and Geike Gorges, to the spectacular horizontal waterfall at Talbot Bay, there is so much to see.

The flamboyant multicultural town of Broome offers so much in the way of luxury accommodation, attractions, activities, sightseeing and more! Founded over a century ago as one of the world’s great pearling ports, it attracted many Asian immigrants lured by the promise of finding their fortune. Over the years, Koepanger, Chinese, Japanese, European and Aboriginal cultures have blended to create Broome’s unique character and charm.

Broome is world-famous for its magnificent sunsets. The sight of the sun setting over the Indian Ocean and the ever-lengthening shadows and the transformation of crimson silver as the sun sinks below the horizon is a unique spectacle. The moon controls Broome’s famous tides that can reach over 9 metres, revealing the ghostly Stairway to the Moon and occasionally exposing the remains of flying boats sunk in World War II.

But the night brings more than the stars and the moon. The town comes alive again with much to see and do whether you are after a great bite to eat in one of the delectable restaurants or sit and listen to some live music in one of that bars.... The choice is yours! Perhaps you might like to discover the creatures of the night on one of the nature walks that can get your up close and personal with the tiny animals that scurry around at night time!

You can still soak up the history from the dangerous days of luggers and divers, but today the focus is on the Broome South Sea Pearl and the arts. You can tour a pearl farm, browse the many world-class pearl jewellery studios and art galleries in Chinatown, see a movie at the world’s oldest outdoor picture gardens, or witness one of Broome’s many visual art, music or sports festivals.

The famous Broome pearls and Argyle’s pink diamonds are among the precious rarities produced in this area. They are fabulous reminders of a visit to one of the planet’s most exciting locations! So if you want a holiday in the heart of the Kimberley region then you will need to book some great Broome hotel accommodation for your stay and in this website you will find the best there is for any level of budget.
