The
remoteness of the area means most of the roads are unsealed, and may be closed
in the wet season, which makes a 4WD the best means of transport.
The former pearling capital of the world is a sleepy town at the end of a mangrove lined peninsula. At very low tide near the base of the cliffs on Gantheaume Point are footprints of a dinosaur which lived 150 millions years ago. Broome’s race week is held in July and the Shinju Matsuri (Festival of the Pearl) is held in August or September.
