Despite its isolation, Broome and the Kimberley attracts thousands of visitors a year. Tourists from all over Australia as well as international, see the region as a ‘must-do’ when visiting Western Australia.
Besides the Kimberley region’s historic towns, pristine beaches, adrenalin-pumping fishing, exciting outback Gibb River, Broome alone draws a crowd each year to witness the Staircase to the Moon. This natural phenomenon occurs each year between March and October when the full moon rises over Roebuck Bay. The low tides at this time expose the mud flats and as the moon rises, it creates a reflective effect reminiscent of a stairway.
