Turtle Monitoring
Flatback sea turtles nest only on Australian beaches from October to March. For turtle viewing, please contact the local Care for Hedland Environmental Association who manage the turtle monitoring program.
Guided evening tours operate under their code of conduct, and if you’re lucky you may see turtles nesting or even hatching!
Dalgety House Mueum
Situated at the doorstep of The Continental Hotel, Roebuck Bay is one of Broome’s most beautiful natural attractions.
The changing colours are incredible, with the turquoise waters retreating at low tide to reveal a horizon of mud flats. The diversity of its marine and plant life makes it a popular spot for bird watching.
