Middle Lagoon

Broome & The Kimberley


Middle Lagoon, 180km from Broome and surrounded by empty beaches, is superb for swimming, snorkelling, fishing and, well, doing nothing. There's plenty of shade and birdlife, and the cabins (available April to September) will take up to five people. There's a small shop, public phone and simple amenities.
