Welcome to Broome Airport!
Affectionately known as ‘The Town by the Bay’, this tropical oasis town has captured the hearts of all who’ve visited. It’s a tropical oasis in the heart of the WA desert, so expect a beautiful stay while you’re here.
A quick note to say that the best time to visit Broome is in the dry season from April to October. Here is when you’ll find those long sunny days with little rain and next to no humidity.
Situated just underneath the Dampier Peninsula, Broome is a gorgeous town with incredible views over the Indian Ocean. Make sure to have the best time exploring by renting a hire car with Hertz from Broome Airport!

There is always something to do in Broome. From brewery tours to scenic plane rides, dinosaur prints to camel rides, this little corner of Australia is unlike any other.
Broome is also rich in both history and culture. Those who love the prehistoric era will love discovering the dinosaur footprints at Gantheaume Point. There’s also the Broome Historical Museum for those who want to step back in time and learn about a whole new world.
For art and culture lovers, there’s plenty to experience here, too. A visit to Broome Gallery, Black Stump Gallery, or Nagula Jarndu Designs are all fantastic ways to spend the day. Make sure to finish the night with a trip to Sun Pictures, the oldest operating outdoor picture garden.
For a fun day out, with a designated driver, it’s always worth spending some time around the breweries and distilleries in Broome. There’s plenty to choose from, like Moontide, Hoochery Distillery, and Matso’s Brewery to just name a few.

It’s quite magical to look out and see the Indian Ocean glistening under the gaze of a sunny sky. You’ll be doing that plenty of times while adventuring around in Broome!
Why not drive your rental car over to Cable Beach for the day? With gorgeous blue seas and white sand, this is a great spot to set up camp for the day. It’s a 22-kilometre stretch of sand, so there’ll be plenty of space for any and all who want to spend their time here. It’s also home to a spectacular sunset spot, with the sun dipping into the Indian Ocean over the horizon.
Of course, a reason that many venture to Broome Airport is to head into the wilderness of the Kimberley. Here is where picking the right rental car comes into play, because the Kimberley is a vast terrain that won’t suit most cars. Make sure to get a 4x4, or even book to join onto a tour if you’re feeling a little unsure. The Kimberley boasts one of the oldest and largest wilderness landscapes on earth, and trust us when we tell you - it’ll be that once in a lifetime trip that you’ll never forget. There are majestic canyons, incredible nature, and prolific wildlife, too.
It’s clearly not a surprise that Broome Airport will be the gateway to some incredible Western Australia adventures. With The Kimberley on your doorstep, and the likes of Cable Beach and all that Broome town centre has to offer, there’s plenty to do and see. Make sure to see it all in your Hertz rental car!
