Cable Beach can be found in Broome, Western Australia and is an incredible fusion of desert and sea, offering families a unique and diverse range of experiences. The beach's vast stretch of golden sand meets the deep blue waters of the Indian Ocean, creating an awe-inspiring backdrop for families seeking adventure and relaxation.
One of the most iconic experiences at Cable Beach is the camel ride along the shoreline, especially during the stunning sunset hours. Children will be enchanted by the opportunity to interact with these gentle giants while taking in the breathtaking colors of the sky.
For families with younger kids, the tidal flats of Cable Beach offer a fascinating natural playground. During low tide, vast expanses of flat, shallow water are exposed, creating the perfect environment for kids to splash around and explore the marine life that thrives in these waters.
The Indian Ocean's warm waters are ideal for swimming, and families can also indulge in various water sports such as paddleboarding, kayaking, and snorkeling. The Dampier Peninsula, located nearby, provides cultural experiences where kids can learn about the indigenous history and traditions of the area.

Broome is a short drive away, but you can always take your own lunch to enjoy! Nothing like a beach picnic!
Turtles nest on Cable Beach between October and February, and there are some restrictions on beach driving during that time
Take plenty of sun protection!
