Gather with your Travel Director on Broome’s Cable Beach and raise a glass of bubbles as the sun sets over the Indian Ocean. The broad sweep of sand gives everyone room to find a view of the changing colours.

Share a sunset toast in a town shaped by its pearling history and tropical coast. It is a relaxed, hosted introduction to fellow travellers and to one of Broome’s most recognisable landscapes.

Visit Port Hedland’s bulk export port, a working harbour central to the Pilbara’s resource industry. See the scale of the infrastructure that connects the region’s mineral-rich interior with shipping routes across the world.

The port offers a striking contrast to the surrounding red Pilbara landscape. Its activity makes the region’s mining economy visible, giving context to the vast distances and industrial history of Western Australia’s northwest.

Explore Karijini National Park on a tour through the Hamersley Range, where layered red cliffs frame deep gorges, waterfalls and turquoise rock pools. Look for gum trees and termite mounds across this remote Pilbara wilderness.

Discover a landscape shaped over billions of years in one of Western Australia’s largest national parks. The contrast between ancient rock, clear water and sparse vegetation reveals the geological character that makes Karijini so distinctive.

Explore Murujuga National Park with Traditional Custodian rangers and view rock engravings etched into the Pilbara’s stone. Your guides share perspectives on the images and their relationship to Country.

The wider Murujuga Cultural Landscape, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2025, holds one of the world’s most significant concentrations of Aboriginal rock art. This guided visit offers a way to encounter that enduring cultural heritage with local custodians.

Cruise above Ningaloo Reef from Coral Bay aboard a glass-bottom boat, watching for colourful fish, coral and turtles through the viewing panels. An onboard naturalist helps you identify marine life without entering the water.

Part of the UNESCO-listed Ningaloo Coast, this reef lies unusually close to shore. The cruise offers a dry, accessible perspective on its marine sanctuary and the intricate habitats beneath the surface.

Visit the Carnarvon Space and Technology Museum to explore the town’s role in the early space age. Browse exhibits about the tracking and communications facilities that supported space missions from this remote stretch of Western Australia.

Discover Carnarvon’s connection to the 1969 Moon landing broadcast and the people and equipment behind it. The museum brings an unexpected chapter of global technological history into focus far from the world’s major space centres.

Visit Hamelin Pool in Shark Bay to see stromatolites: living, rock-like structures built by microbial communities in the shallow water. Their clustered forms offer a glimpse of organisms similar to those that helped shape Earth’s early environment.

Often described as living fossils, stromatolites thrive here partly because the water’s high salinity limits grazing animals. This unusual setting makes Shark Bay’s World Heritage-listed natural history especially tangible.

Walk along Shell Beach in Shark Bay, where the bright shoreline is made not of sand but of countless tiny cockle shells. Take in the contrast between the pale beach and the clear, shallow water.

Shells have accumulated here over many thousands of years, forming unusually deep deposits. This shoreline shaped by marine life is one of the distinctive environments within the UNESCO-listed Shark Bay area.

Watch for wild dolphins approaching the shore at Monkey Mia while national park rangers explain their behaviour and the carefully managed feeding program. The calm waters of Shark Bay provide an intimate setting for observing these familiar local animals.

The dolphins remain wild, so sightings cannot be guaranteed. Ranger interpretation adds context to the encounter, helping visitors understand the animals as part of a living marine ecosystem rather than a staged display.

Step onto the Kalbarri Skywalk for elevated views across the Murchison River gorge. Its lookout platforms extend over the edge, revealing the scale and colours of the ancient sandstone landscape below.

Kalbarri National Park protects river-carved gorges, coastal scenery and diverse plant life. In spring, seasonal wildflowers can bring further colour to the surrounding country, though flowering conditions vary from year to year.

Visit Geraldton’s HMAS Sydney II Memorial to pay respects to the crew lost when the Australian warship sank off the Western Australian coast during the Second World War. Explore a place designed for remembrance above the seaside city.

The memorial’s Dome of Souls incorporates 645 stainless-steel seagulls, one for each person lost. Its imagery gives personal scale to a major event in Australia’s naval history.

Explore the Pinnacles in Nambung National Park, where limestone pillars rise from pale desert sand in shapes that range from slender spikes to broad, weathered columns. Move among the formations and take in their shifting silhouettes.

Formed through complex geological processes over many thousands of years, this sculptural limestone landscape is unlike the red gorges and blue coastline elsewhere on the journey. Its open setting rewards a close look at the texture of each spire.

Join an Aboriginal-guided experience in Yanchep National Park to hear stories of Country and learn about the landscape through an Indigenous perspective. Engage your senses by tasting native bush foods and smelling plants traditionally used for medicine.

This hands-on cultural encounter may also include an opportunity to try playing the didgeridoo. Led by a local guide, it connects the park’s natural surroundings with living knowledge and storytelling.

Visit a Broome pearl farm to learn how pearl oysters are cultivated and how pearls develop. See the care and skill involved in an industry closely associated with the town and its coastal waters.

Broome’s pearling history drew people from around the world and helped shape its multicultural character. This optional experience offers a closer look at that heritage and the craft behind the finished gems. It is at additional cost and bookable on tour.

Take a scenic flight from Broome for an aerial perspective on the landscapes of Western Australia’s northwest. The route and sights depend on the flight available; your Travel Director can advise you about current options.

Seeing the region from above reveals patterns, distances and contrasts that are harder to grasp at ground level. This optional flight is at additional cost and bookable on tour, subject to availability and operating conditions.

Snorkel over Ningaloo Reef with an ethical operator and observe marine life in the clear waters off the Exmouth coast. Depending on the experience available and the season, there may be opportunities to look for whale sharks or humpback whales.

Any wildlife encounter takes place on the animals’ terms, so sightings are not guaranteed. This optional marine experience is at additional cost and bookable on tour; ask your Travel Director about available trips and conditions.

Cruise the waters off Exmouth at sunset and watch the light change over the coast from a boat. This is a way to experience the Ningaloo region’s seascape while staying dry.

From the water, the North West Cape takes on a different outline against the evening sky. This optional cruise is at additional cost and bookable on tour; your Travel Director can advise on availability and local conditions.
