DAY 1 Fly to Broome

Broome is the western gateway to the spectacular Kimberley region. This historic pearling town sits on the western edge of the vast and remote Kimberley region and is the largest town in Australia's ruggedly beautiful northwest. Broome exudes a laid back ambience, an outback oasis with white sand beaches, sensational Cable Beach and shimmering turquoise waters which contrast vividly with the red ochre pindan earth.

You will be personally met at the airport by a DISCOVER AUSTRALIA representative and transferred from the airport to your hotel. You can relax and use the rest of the day to explore your hotel and its facilities. Enjoy a leisurely evening to spend your own way.

Meet and greet personalised arrival transfer, overnight Broome accommodation.

DAY 2 Discover Broome Tour

Enjoy some free time this morning before we experience the perfect introduction to Broome in the afternoon, as we discover the incredible Cable Beach, Chinatown, Gantheaume Point, Roebuck Bay, the renowned Japanese Cemetery and the historic township. Learn the evocative stories of the bravery of the early pearl divers at Willie Creek Pearl Luggers. Visit the heart and soul of Broome – Chinatown - welcoming you with an explosion of vibrance and colour, home to the timeless Sun Pictures (the world's oldest operational movie picture garden). Delight in a stop at Matso's Brewery, a bastion of flavours and stories where we partake in a guided beer tasting led by the knowledgeable staff - the renowned ginger beer takes the spotlight, tantalising the senses. We then set our course for Town Beach, where echoes of Broome's One Day War resound, etching history into the scenery. Delve into the local history as we explore the largest Japanese Cemetery in Australia, a testament to enduring ties woven between Broome and its pearling legacy and then on to colourful Broome Port — a colossal portal to the Kimberley region's grandeur. Step back in time at Gantheaume Point adorned with its dramatic crimson cliffs, famous dinosaur footprints, and Anastasia's Pool. Marvel at the enticing 22km expanse of the spectacular Cable Beach before culminating at Gantheaume Beach, where refreshments and nibbles accompany a sunset spectacle.
