What to expect
You'll meet at the beach and be paired with a camel. After a brief introduction, you'll mount and spend roughly an hour riding along Cable Beach as the sun sets. The pace is slow and steady—these are working animals used to tourists. Once you're back on the sand, you'll feed your camel a carrot we supply. If you're a woman, you'll receive a freshwater pearl earring as a keepsake.
The whole outing is low-key and family-friendly. There's no instruction course or lengthy briefing; it's a straightforward ride timed to catch the light.

Good to know
This suits anyone wanting a relaxed, iconic Broome photo moment without physical exertion. It's gentle enough for kids (though infants must sit on an adult) and older guests. However, there's a strict 90kg weight limit per person—you won't be allowed to ride if you exceed it. It's not recommended for anyone with spinal injuries or pregnant travellers, as camel motion can be uncomfortable. The beach can be exposed; bring sunscreen and a light layer. Public transport is nearby if you're not driving. Dinner is not included.
