What to do at Cable beach – Broome

Cable beach is a large stretch of beach that is popular for its lovely and fun things to do on it.

1. The sand dune walks that lead to the beach. Right by the caravan park we stayed at was a short ‘jellyfish signed’ walk that led over a sand dune to a quiet part of the beach. From here you can walk just under 1km to the main section of the beach.

2. Many people flock to the main section of cable beach to view the beautiful sunset over the water and at the right times of the month snap a picture of the staircase to the sun.

3. Exploring the rock pools was something I always love to do at any beach and at cable beach we found tiny hermit crabs, fish and crabs, the rocks were easy to climb around. There are rock further up the beach that were beautifully coloured and varing in heights which made for a fun climb and photos.

4. Just past the carpark was the 4wd entrance, where you can down and through the rocks onto a section of the beach.

5. Camels come out on the beach for people to book rides on. They come out just before sunset and during sunset, which allow great photo opportunities and a ride if you are adventurous.

6. Swimming and sand is an obvious choice to do at Cable beach. But you do need to be aware when it is stinger season, and they do have stingers kits on the main walkway steps and they contain vinegar. Crocs are also possible but rare on the beach front, so we enjoyed a swim in the shallows being aware of these conditions.
