Cable Beach sits a short drive or bus ride from Broome township, and the camels are what most families come for. Several operators run camel trains along the beach, with a shorter ride before sunset and a longer one at sunset. With Broome Cameleers, children can give their camel a carrot, but only after the Sunset Tour, so the feeding comes at the end of the day rather than the start. Behind the beach, Minyirr Park has dunes and self-guided walking trails for a walk on your own terms. Cable Beach House on Cable Beach Road West serves food from early morning until late, does takeaway, and describes itself as family friendly.

Why kids will love it
A camel ride on a beach is a story children take home, and here several operators offer it. Feeding the camel a carrot afterwards turns the ride into an encounter rather than just a trip along the sand.
