What to Do in Broome for a Day off the Cruise Ship?

In port for the day? Come on a 4WD adventure around Broome. Pete shows you Broome at your pace and plans it all around your all-aboard time.

  • Do not hesitate to contact Pete and enquire. Then BOOK the best day you can experience. We arrived via cruise,Pete was able.to collect us portside at the gangway. A full day seeing all the highlights Broome has to offer and then the magic coastline where some of the larger tour operators don't have time or access. We only had a day to experience Broome and Petes iterinary did not disappoint. Pete is a great advocate for the area and would book again if I can get back. Thankyou

  • Just did a fantastic tour with Peter. He was so accommodating and flexible with our itinerary after our ship docked later than expected on the first day and then our time was cut short on the second day. My sisters and I had an amazing time. We would highly recommend organising a Tour with Broome Time Tours if you are interested in getting the real Broome experience

How a ShipDay Works

Rated 5.0 on Google from 39 reviews.

  1. Book Before You Sail

    Tell Pete your ship, the date and your all-aboard time. There is one 4WD, so a ship day can fill.

  2. Met at the Gangway

    Pete holds a maritime security card, so he meets you at the gangway. No shuttle and no taxi rank.

  3. Your Broome, Your Pace

    It is your group only. Stay as long as you like at each stop and skip what you do not want to see.

  4. Back to the Ship

    Pete plans the day around your all-aboard time and drives you back to the port.

Cruise DayQuestions

How far is the Broome cruise terminal from town?

The port is about 7 kilometres south of the town centre, around 10 minutes by road. On a tour you do not need the shuttle: Pete picks you up at the gangway.

Is Broome worth visiting on a cruise?

Yes. In one short tour you can stand on Cable Beach, see the red rocks at Gantheaume Point and walk through Chinatown, the old pearling town. At low tide there are dinosaur footprints at Gantheaume Point.

What can you do in Broome in a day?

The Broome Town and Beaches tour covers the best of it in 2.5 hours. With a full day in port, the six hour Offroad 4WD Outback Coastal Adventure heads out along the coast on red pindan tracks.

Do we need to book before the ship gets in?

Yes. Pete runs one private 4WD, so book ahead with your ship, the date and your all-aboard time.

What should we bring off the ship?

A hat, sunscreen, water and your camera. Comfortable shoes for the beach and the rocks. Your cruise card to get back on board.
