![Now Broome and the Kimberley is an amazing spot to do a road trip! I would recommend flying in from Perth, starting in Broome with a few days and then heading into the Kimberley. A must do in Broome is the cable beach sunset camel ride, there are two operators that do a very similar walk. Try to time it around the low tide so you have beautiful reflections whilst walking on wet sand. #RoadTrip ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6130646/61876d02-e7d1-49d1-abeb-bdc5663e0d3b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium)
