Where is Broome?

Broome is located in the remote north, west coast of Australia in the State of Western Australia. Its European settlement history started out as pastoralists arrived and carved up the land for farming leases. Later it was a pearling port for Japanese pearlers in the sea off Broome during the 1880′s. Today only a handful of boats operate but still it produces some of the finest pearls in the world.

Broome has become known as the travel destination that offers that sense of relaxation on Cable Beach, remoteness (being more than 2,200km north of Perth) and providing the access to the Australian Outback experience of The Kimberley. This area is worthy of its own post at a later date!
