Slide Notes

Where the sky meets the land, the desert meets the sea, where white sands, red rocks and cobalt blue waters come together; on a peninsula not more than 15km long, here rests the town of Broome.

Often referred to as the southern gateway to the Kimberley, this tropical seaside town simply oozes with charm and character.
