Streeter's Jetty is an iconic Broome location and it is great to visit at different times to see the difference the local tides make. When the tide is out, you can see the mudflats, and then compare it again at high tide to see the beautiful waters of Roebuck Bay contrast with the mangroves and nearby scenery. Take in the views of the buildings around Chinatown to appreciate the history of this location.
