Broome
Broome is a unique town, on a peninsula, where one of the world’s last great wildernesses meets the Indian Ocean. Broome’s exotic pearling town past has left a rich history and a unique multi-cultural mix of people.
Our pristine waters, wide empty beaches, abundant wildlife, tropical climate and breath-taking colours attract thousands of visitors each year. There is so much to see and discover, so many unique, ‘once in a lifetime’ experiences. Whether you are a thrill seeker, adventurer, culture vulture, water lover or sun seeker and whatever your budget; the Kimberley Experts at the Broome Visitor Centre can tailor make your perfect holiday itinerary.

Chinatown
Chinatown has been the multicultural heart and soul of Broome since the pearling crews set up their first camps and corrugated tin sheds in the 1880s. Today Broome has developed into an iconic Western Australian tourism town and Chinatown is its heart and soul. A boutique retail hub and a site of historical significance, it is a unique and special place worth visiting!

Town Beach
Located on the south east edge of Broome is Town Beach. The park and foreshore is the place to be for the ‘Staircase to the Moon’ and the Thursday evening markets, and it forms part of the ‘Jetty to Jetty’ walking trail. The Town Beach Foreshore Redevelopment was completed in mid 2020. We look forward to welcoming visitors to Broome to come and enjoy this amazing new area at Town Beach.






Sun Pictures - Outdoor Cinema in Broome
Sun Pictures is the world’s oldest operating open-air picture gardens and is open for the public to discover the history of this unique location. This is a major tourist attraction for Broome and allows visitors to step back in time and feel what it would have been like to attend the cinema in years gone by.
The Sun Pictures building in Broome’s Chinatown was constructed at the turn of the century (1903) on a site owned by the Yamasaki family.
This beautiful location has been restored over the 100+ years, but the charm of this iconic location has been kept. Walk through and uncover history with the film posters, equipment, projectors and other cinematic treasures kept on site.
Two films are shown each night, and this is a real treat for anyone visiting Broome. As Sun Pictures is located under a flight path, it can get a bit noisy when a plane comes in to land. This all adds to the thrill of an evening at Sun Pictures.

Reddell Beach
Reddell Beach is a picturesque place, especially at sunset when the light highlights the radiant reds of the rocks. This beach is popular with the locals and is located on the unsealed Kavite Road to Gantheaume Point Lighthouse - a short drive from Broome. Access is via carpark 3. It can be quite rocky on low tide, but it is lovely to discover the interesting rock formations and take those 'Kimberley colours' photos that are so iconic for the region. White sand, red rocks and the ocean. There are no facilities or life-saving duties at this beach.
If you time your visit at high tide, you may be fortunate to witness a spectacular phenomenon when the ocean meets the pindan cliffs and the ochre colour bleeds into the normally crystal blue waters. The calm refreshing waters are ideal for swimming or paddling with the children, and the lack of crowds makes this well kept secret spot an idyllic location. Enjoy a picnic lunch or just laze about on the beach and soak up the sun.
