    Broome ( pop. 18000) is one of the few places in Australia where you get both a sunrise and a sunset over water. 130+ million years ago, dinosaurs inhabited the area. Dinosaur footprints are visible on a low tide at Gantheaume Point where the lighthouse stands.
    Cable Beach is rated in the world's top 5 beaches. It runs 22klms+ of pure white sand where we joined one of the daily camel rides. Broome has 10m tidal rises.
