Enjoy a fully guided tour with entertaining and informative commentary on a variety of topics from the history of the Broome Town, the evolution of the coastline, the wildlife and bird life that call Roebuck Bay home and much more. One of the highlights of this tour is the 120 Million year old dinosaur footprints that are fossilised in rock on secluded beach. Enjoy a short beach walk to the site of these prints where you will learn the science behind them that has been gathered by palaeontologists since the 1940's.
Broome Hovercraft will transport you across the tidal floor to see dinosaur footprints in old petrified forest on the other side of Roebuck bay. Gliding along the tidal edge take in the view as Pelicans, Egrets, Osprey and Sea Eagle pass by, whilst marveling at the dramatic red rich Pindan cliff backdrop as you land on a secluded patch of pristine coastline. As the tide continues to fall you then head off into the Bay, settle down on the sandy sea floor and let your pilots look after you with sparkling wine and hors d’oeuvres as the sun finally sets silhouetting the Broome Peninsula whilst glistening off ripples in the tidal floor.
