Where the red desert meets the turquoise sea, Broome is a captivating blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. Once the thriving heart of Australia’s pearling industry, this laid-back coastal town still carries the charm of its rich past — from its multicultural heritage to its iconic pearl boutiques and historic Chinatown. Stroll along world-famous Cable Beach at sunset, watch the camels wander by, and feel the soft sand between your toes as the sun dips below the Indian Ocean.
This historic pearling town is your embarkation and/or disembarkation point for your Discovery One cruise, making it the perfect place to begin or end your Kimberley adventure. Take time to explore Broome’s friendly cafés, art galleries, and tropical gardens, or simply relax and let the gentle pace of life in the northwest wash over you.
