Broome 2008

These are old photos from our very first trip to Broome back in 2008.

The turquoise waters looked incredible, whether viewed from the air or out on a boat.

There’s always something happening on Cable Beach. We took a sunset camel ride tour, and it was fun seeing the crowds gathered to watch the day end from a different perspective.

We also visited Malcolm Douglas’ crocodile park, back when Malcolm himself was still alive.

Another highlight was a hovercraft tour around Roebuck Bay, followed by a trip to see the famous dinosaur footprints at Gantheaume Point.

Broome was multicultural long before the term became fashionable. A visit to the Japanese museum gave us a fascinating glimpse into the town’s early pearling history.

It’s amazing looking back at these memories from our first Broome adventure.
