Route overview

Embarking on a one-way road trip from Perth to Broome in a rented motorhome offers an unforgettable adventure through some of Western Australia’s most stunning landscapes. Over 15 days, your family will traverse breathtaking scenery, from golden beaches to rugged outback, all while enjoying the comforts of your RV.

The journey begins in the vibrant city of Perth, where a visit to the Perth Zoo is a must. Here, your family can meet Australian wildlife up close, from cuddly koalas to playful kangaroos. As you hit the road, the Pinnacles Desert Discovery Centre beckons with its unique limestone formations that rise majestically from the golden sands. It’s a fantastic spot for family photos and an easy hike through the surreal landscape.

Continuing north, you’ll arrive at Nature's Window in Kalbarri National Park, a stunning natural rock formation that frames the picturesque Murchison River. The view is breathtaking and an ideal stop for a picnic lunch. The next highlight is Shark Bay Dive & Marine Safaris, where your family can take a boat tour to explore the stunning marine life of Shark Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Don't miss the chance to spot dolphins and turtles!

Next, the Termite Mound viewing area presents a fascinating insight into nature’s architects, and the kids will love seeing these towering structures up close. As you make your way toward Port Hedland, be sure to stop at the North West Brewing Company to sample local brews while the kids enjoy a meal from a nearby café.

In Port Hedland, the Visitor Centre is a great place to learn about the local culture and history before continuing to your final destination. As you arrive in Broome, the anticipation builds for the Broome Pearl Farm Tours, where your family can learn about the art of pearl farming and even try on some stunning jewelry.

For a unique experience, consider booking a Turtle Kayak Broome Adventure, where you can paddle alongside turtles in the pristine waters of Broome’s coastline. As you soak in the beauty of the sunset over Cable Beach, your family will surely agree that this road trip has been a journey filled with unforgettable memories.

  • Make sure to check the weather conditions, especially if you plan to hike or kayak.
