I only intended to go once, but it was so beautiful that I went back a second time. A great place to watch the passing parade and enjoy the stunning sunset.

take time and walk along this beautiful beach and pinkish rock pools. It seems that everyone in Broome descends on Cable beach as the sunsets, it is spectacular.

Beautiful white sand and crystal clear water, whats not to like. With such a long stretch of sand there is plenty of room for everyone. The sunsets are amazing. The water was beautiful. Loved it

Cable Beach, although only a few kilometres out of Broome, is almost another town!

What's not to like about Cable Beach ? Great view of sunset. Interesting at low or high tides. Endless walks. Constant activity to watch. Easily accessed by town bus.
