Car Hire Broome, WA

There are no toll roads in Broome, or the rest of WA, to make for a stress-free road trip experience.

Chinatown is the retail heart of Broome. If you're there to enjoy the shops and restaurants, you'll find short-stay parking bays close by, plus plenty of bays without time restrictions located along Short Street, within the Paspaley Shopping Complex and along the northern part of Dampier Terrace. 

If you're coming with a caravan or RV there are bays designated for this use in the Visitor Centre Car Park.  

Other parking options include the Playground Car Park, a free parking lot at 90 Robinson Street and Boulevard Shopping Centre Carpark, open 24 hours.

When it's time to fill up, you'll have a number of petrol stations to choose from including:

Coles Express Fuel Station Broome, Cnr Hamersley Street
BP, 108 Guy Street
BP Broome Central, Cnr Frederick & Coghlan Sts
Shell, Cnr Hamersley St Napier Terrace

If you're cruising around Broome in an electric car, you can find a Horizon Power EV charger just a few minute's drive from the town centre. The 150kW fast charger at Town Beach car park allows drivers to top up their EVs in as little as 20 minutes.

Hiring a car in Broome is crucial, and one of the best ways to experience all of the beauty it has to offer. While there is a bus service that runs every day, many of the more scenic roads are best explored by car. Many bus routes also finish early in the evening, making a car your best bet for travelling around Broome at night. Drive along the scenic coastal roads and create your own itinerary.

Beyond Broome, there is much to explore in WA, from abundant wildlife and sealife to some of Australia's most famous wine regions and spectacular natural attractions.

Perth, the state's Capital, is an urban hub within the vast natural beauty of WA. It still boasts serene white-sand beaches, but you can also immerse yourself in the bustling neighbourhoods, art galleries and restaurants. The best of both worlds.

Exmouth, about 1250 kilometres from Perth, is the gateway to Ningaloo Reef, one of the world's best places to encounter marine life, including whale sharks, manta rays, and turtles.

Kununurra is the largest town in WA north of Broome, famous for its wildlife-rich waterways and wetlands. Head to Bungle Bungle Range (Purnululu National Park) to marvel at the unique beehive-shaped rock formations and hike through ancient gorges.

Hiring a car is the first step towards planning your epic adventure. But there's more to a safe roundtrip than rounding up your gang and putting a playlist together. You'll want to consider a 4WD hire car to navigate the sometimes challenging roads and pack a well-stocked safety kit, satellite phone, and plenty of drinking water for an adventurous but drama-free journey.
