Broome to the Bungle Bungles

Broome to the Bungle Bungles

A place of astounding natural beauty and great spiritual significance, Western Australia’s Kimberley region is Australia untamed.

Weave through the boulders and chasms of the Bungle Bungles, encounter Dreaming stories in the Mimbi Caves and learn the legend of Jandamarra on a tour of Tunnel Creek.

Additionally, the Broome Wildlife Park provides an opportunity to see local wildlife, including kangaroos, koalas, and various bird species.

    A fun fact about Broome is that it’s also famous for its Staircase to the Moon, a natural optical illusion that occurs when a full moon rises over the mudflats of Roebuck Bay, creating a staircase-like reflection on the tidal flats.
