The sun is lowering over a wide Indian Ocean horizon as you climb slowly onto a blue-blanketed camel and the sand cools underfoot. The rhythm of the camel’s walk and the sound of surf set a steady pace; within minutes the town’s noise slips behind you and the shoreline stretches both ways, dotted with the long shadows of late afternoon.

The sun is lowering over a wide Indian Ocean horizon as you climb slowly onto a blue-blanketed camel and the sand cools underfoot. The rhythm of the camel’s walk and the sound of surf set a steady pace; within minutes the town’s noise slips behind you and the shoreline stretches both ways, dotted with the long shadows of late afternoon.
Camels arrived in Australia in the 19th century as working animals for inland exploration; here on Cable Beach they have found a modern calling as gentle beach companions. The coastline at Broome is part of the Kimberley margin — flat, sandy spits backed by fragile dunes and red pindan country — and the pearling history of Broome is visible in the town’s compact streets and pearl stores a short drive from the beach.
Guides offer a short, relaxed 30-minute loop north of the rocks where the meeting point is next to the Surf Club; photos on your device are taken free of charge and female riders receive a complimentary freshwater pearl earring. Practicalities matter: there’s a strict 90 kg weight limit per rider, and the operator recommends against participation for guests with back, heart or pregnancy restrictions.
For planning, arrive 15 minutes early to meet the handler, wear sun protection and closed shoes, and bring a lightweight layer for the sea breeze as the sun drops. Timing is everything — pre-sunset rides give the best light for photos without the heat of midday. Respect the animals and dunes: stay on marked tracks, follow the handler’s instructions, and you’ll have a short, memorable encounter that’s relaxed, photogenic and steeped in Broome’s coastal character.
The operator enforces a strict 90 kg weight limit per passenger; riders above this limit will not be permitted to participate and refunds are not provided in that case.
Meet north of the rocks on Cable Beach from the main swimming area near the Surf Club; guides use blue-blanketed camels as the meeting marker.
Yes — guides will take photos on your camera or device during the ride and hand them to you free of charge.
Full refunds are available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure; the operator may cancel for bad weather or insufficient travelers.
