Cable Beach

By: TravelAU


Cable Beach, located at a distance of six kilometres from Broome, is one of Western Australia’s most sought after beaches.
It was named from the telegraph cable laid in 1889 between Broome and Java. Cable Beach is now known as the destination to be at, whether you are planning a family holiday or a romantic getaway.
Reknown for its beautiful and golden palm fringed sandy beaches, Cable Beach provides the perfect setting for a relaxed vacation. Travellers can reach the location by road or air. There are flights to Broome from Perth, Alice Springs, Darwin and other key Australian destinations, and visitors can also take a bus or drive to this famous beach location. We are located at a distance of about 2200 kilometres from Perth and about 1860 kms from Darwin.
For tourists wanting to make the most of a Cable Beach holiday, it pays to plan for plenty of lazy time to simply enjoy the pristine beauty of Australian nature we offer. Known as one of the world’s most stunning beaches, this 22 km long coastline with its tropical climate provides the ideal setting for a wonderful vacation all year round. Travellers can indulge in activities like surfing, fishing, freefall skydiving and a number of other adventurous water sports and tourist activities. Cable Beach is great if you enjoy a refreshing swim (although you do need to be careful as marine stingers are seen here during the months from November to March – speak to the locals about safety precautions to enjoy swimming in safety) and sun bathing as well .

The sunset from here is simply breathtaking and the sunset camel ride is an experience in itself. For those looking forward to an exciting game of golf, the Cable Beach golf club is the place to be. Some hotels even offer a discount at the golf club as part of their holiday package. The golf club is real value for money and a good course for beginners as well as for experienced golfers.

Cable Beach provides an ambience that is inspiring to say the least. Nature has truly gifted us a natural masterpiece which provides great inspiration to photographers and artists. The air here is filled with romance – so we’re known as a great destination for honeymooners and couples who look forward to spending quality time together enjoying long walks hand in hand on the golden sands.

The tides here ensure that the beach is kept in a pristine condition, freshly washed and clean ! Dolphins and whales are also seen here during the relevant season. Beautiful shells found on the sands are a reminder you’re in a typical tropical paradise.
