Broome, the Kimberley & Gibb River Road

The Kimberley is a true wilderness area, home to some of the most beautiful landscapes in Australia. Broome is the gateway, accessible by flights from Darwin, Ayers Rock or Perth, and is a small laid back town. Cable Beach has 22 kms of white sand, lapped by warm, crystal waters, and is the ideal place to watch the sunset on a balmy, tropical night. Pearl shops line the streets of Chinatown where you'll also find art galleries, boutiques and cafes, plus the iconic Sun Pictures open-air cinema.

Broome is the perfect base from which to discover the stunning gorges of the Western Kimberley. Consider starting your adventure with a drive along the Gibb River Road through to Kununurra. We can arrange 4WD self drives or adventure safaris exploring the many dramatic gorges and waterfalls of the region. Accommodation is in simple homesteads on vast cattle stations, giving a true sense of life in outback Australia. In the Eastern Kimberley a flight, with the options of an overnight stay, at the Bungle Bungles with their distinctive orange and black stripes.
