Temporary parking changes in front of Cable Beach Club from 12 November to early December 2026.

As part of the ongoing Walmanyjun Cable Beach Foreshore Redevelopment, customer parking directly in front of Cable Beach Club Resort will be temporarily unavailable while works are undertaken in this area.

Pedestrian access will remain open and visitors heading to Sunset Bar & Grill or other Cable Beach Club facilities can continue to access the resort on foot via the existing footpath.

Please note: Alternative vehicle access arrangements will be in place for guests staying at Cable Beach Club Resort. In-house guests, buses and tourism operators picking up or dropping off at the resort should follow the traffic management directions on-site.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we progress these important works to transform the Walmanyjun Cable Beach foreshore.

🌱 This Month's W**d in Focus: Siratro

Welcome to our new series, where we'll take a closer look at some of Broome's most common w**ds and what we can all do to help manage them.

This month's w**d is Siratro (Macroptilium atropurpureum), also known as the Purple Pea Problem. This fast-growing climber starts to thrive as humidity levels rise, smothering native vegetation and spreading quickly if left unchecked.

What can you do?
📍 Report it
📸 Take clear photos of the leaves, flowers and the whole plant before making your report

For more information on identifying and managing w**ds in Broome, find the full article in the Broome Advertiser or visit our updated W**d Management pages:

Together, we can help protect Broome's unique natural environment. 🌿
