With 22 kilometres of sun-kissed white sand and turquoise water, Broome's Cable Beach is justifiably world famous and the ideal place to go swimming and watch the sunset into the Indian Ocean on a balmy, tropical night.
Even though it's one of the world's best beaches, it's still possible to find your own secluded slice of sand to enjoy. You can laze in the sunshine, hire a jet ski, take a boat cruise or enjoy the quintessential Broome experience - a camel ride at sunset on Cable Beach.
The beach is very much a part of Broome's fascinating history - its name is taken from the telegraph cable that was laid between Broome and Java in 1889.
It's a short drive to Cable Beach from Broome - you can drive yourself or catch a local bus. Fly to Broome from Perth and other Australian capital cities.
