Broome is hot, dusty and a little rough around the edges, which is why we love it!

You’ve got Cable Beach for swims, crocodiles, rodeos, camel-riding sunsets, red cliffs out at James Price Point, epic swimming spots like Coconut Well, and thrilling 4WD spots in the Dampier Peninsula.

3-4 days there is a sweet spot if you're in a 2WD.

But if you're in a 4WD, consider adding 2-3 days for exploring (and even camping out bush) at James Price Point or Dampier!

Good to know:

• 4WD opens up heaps of cool spots, but 2WD will still get you around town

• The red dust gets into everything!

• Best time to visit is May to Sept (dry season)

• Avoid in wet season, lots of tropical storms so it's hot and the humidity is really uncomfortable

• Bring your own gear if you want to camp off-grid

• Check tide times, they can swing 9–10 metres and totally change the beaches
