Catch a sunset from a different perspective: riding high on a camel's back. Cable Beach (Walmanyjun) is 22 kilometres of white-gold sand — and a renowned spot for magnificent sunsets. There are three camel tour operators along the beach, including the OG 'camel lady' of Broome. There's a camel with a distinct personality for every kind of rider, from cheeky and playful to calm and docile. Never ridden a camel before? Don't worry. These desert wanderers are well-trained and sure-footed.

An experienced team of cameleers will guide you on a leisurely pace, from red outback dirt to the sandy beachfront where you'll follow the shoreline, taking in views to Gantheaume Point (Minyirr). Watch a glorious sunset in the broad expanse of sky — on cloudy days, they're awash with ever-changing colours. On clear days, there's a graceful fade from blue to gold and into the slow night. It's a little evening adventure, with a spectacular view.
