Cable Beach, Coastal beach in Broome, Australia
Cable Beach extends for 22 kilometers along the Indian Ocean with white sand flanked by red ochre cliffs and clear turquoise waters.
The beach received its name from the telegraph cable connecting Broome to Java, which was installed in this location during 1889.
The Yawuru people maintain traditional connections to Minyirr Park, a coastal reserve adjacent to the southern section of Cable Beach.
Swimming restrictions apply from November to April due to the presence of box jellyfish, with warning signs posted throughout the beach area.
The northern section of Cable Beach permits four-wheel drive vehicles on the sand and includes a designated clothing-optional area extending toward Willie Creek.
