Best Beach Wedding Locations in Broome

There are a number of beautiful beach wedding locations in Broome so you’re spoilt for choice. The blue sky, red earth and the turquoise waters form perfect backdrops for a relaxed and beautiful ceremony.

CABLE BEACH

This white stretch of sand ranks pretty high up there with best beach wedding location in Broome. With 22 kilometres of pristine beach edged by the stunning Indian Ocean, Broome’s Cable Beach attracts visitors from around Australia and the world and is definitely a popular place to get married. The majority of Cable Beach weddings occur just below the popular Sunset Bar, accessible via stairs and close to ample parking, which makes it easy for everyone on the day. Just a little further south, near the Broome Surf Club, is another option to have your ceremony. This location also boasts a nearby carpark and stairs for easy access. And of course in the close vicinity there are a number of great reception venues such as Cable Beach Club Resort, Cable Beach House and the Broome Life Saving Club.

REDDELL BEACH

A little quieter and accessible along the unsealed Kavite Road, is another Broome beach wedding location called Reddell Beach. Stretching from the Broome Port to Gantheaume Point, it’s one of my favourite beaches around Broome and despite being only 10 minutes drive from the town centre it’s usually very quiet. There are two main areas where you can access the beach, each with their own car park nearby.  Note, that these car parks are quite small so perhaps consider hiring transport for your guests to and from this location.

SIMPSON BEACH

A lesser know but very beautiful beach is Simpson Beach. The colours here are incredible! Adjacent to Roebuck Bay and located next to the award-winning Broome Weddings and Events it’s another great option to have your Broome beach wedding. Access down to the sand is either via a set of stairs from the top car park or, if you have permission, via the concrete slipway. The great thing about having your wedding at Broome Weddings and Events is that your guests can stroll up to the bar after the I do’s and sip on cocktails while you head off for some photos.

While these Broome beach wedding locations are breathtakingly gorgeous, they also come with a few challenges. So, it’s important to keep some of the following ideas and tips in mind:

Organise your Broome beach wedding for around 3pm to allow enough time for photos after the ceremony. Keep in mind that during the dry season (May – Sept) the sun already sets around 5:45pm.

With one of the biggest tides in the Southern Hemisphere, it is important to check out the tide times for your Broome wedding day.
