Established as a pearling port in the 1880s, Broome has a romantic and often flamboyant history. It was populated by hearty people of many nationalities - mainly Europeans, Malays, Chinese and Japanese, as well as Australia's Indigenous People - who flocked to the shores of Roebuck Bay in the hope of making their fortune from the pearling industry. The influence of the pearling industry, with its cultural melting pot, has helped to create the distinctive character and charm of Broome. Pearling remains one of the town's major industries due to the cultured pearl, which revived the industry after its near demise in the late 1950s. South Sea Pearls are recognised as the best in the world and the retail pearl outlets in town are a showcase to the quality of Broome pearls. So, whether you're coming to Broome for a relaxing holiday, or just stopping over on your way through the Kimberley, take time to explore our unique history and sights - Broome offers an amazing variety of attractions and activities. And don't forget to include a relaxing afternoon on Cable Beach with a classic Indian Ocean sunset. Satisfaction guaranteed There are many attractions in and around Broome.
