I highly recommend that you visit Cable Beach when you travel to Broome in Western Australia. We stayed at the Palm Grove Holiday Resort which is just a short walk from Cable Beach. Cable Beach is a very popular place to watch the sunset over the water and we never tired of heading to the beach at the end of the day to see the sun going down - we have some wonderful photos.
We found the the surf club a great place to sit and have a drink which are very reasonably priced. It is good to know you are supporting a great cause - the Surf Club is only open a couple of nights a week. There are several restaurants overlooking Cable Beach where you can enjoy lunch or dinner - or take a picnic and sit on the well maintained grassed areas.
One evening we drove onto the southern end of the beach to sit on the tailgate of the car, have a drink and watch the sun go down. This seems to be the thing to do after work - lots of couples and families were parked along the beach, enjoying a relaxing time at the end of the day.
Camel rides along Cable Beach are well publicised and, of course, we wanted to experience this while in Broome - we rode the Blue Camels.
Cable Beach seems to be busy all day - it is very wide and the sand is firm to walk on - apparently the water is very warm.
