KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Broome

  • Famed for countless pristine beaches stretching along the Kimberley coast, hiring a car in Broome will let you drive the coastline and appreciate the beauty of the pearling town. Scenic spots such as Gantheaume Point and Cable Beach are within a 10min drive from the city centre, though they are not connected by public buses. Willie Creek Pearl Farm is another popular attraction that is best reached by a 4x4 car, as high tides make alternative travel unreliable. The weather in Broome stays balmy throughout the year and having access to a hire car means you won’t have to wait in the sun for public transport to arrive. Bus services are the only public transport operated in Broome and they finish at approximately 19:00, meaning a hire car is your best option for exploring the city at night.
  • Car hire companies have their reception desks situated inside the terminal at Broome International Airport (BME). Directly across from Arrivals, you’ll find Avis, Budget, Europcar, Hertz and Thrifty. The small-scale nature of the airport ensures it’s a short walk to your vehicle in the car park.
  • If you plan on picking up a 4x4 and doing some off-road driving in Broome, ensure your hire car contract includes coverage for unpaved roads. Adhere to weather conditions and take caution on wet sand if there has been rain. As traffic is irregular in certain areas of town, it's recommended to use headlights to alert oncoming traffic during both daytime and nighttime. Keep an eye out for wildlife and cattle which have a tendency to move across fields and obstruct roads after dark.
  • Relaxed and calm, traffic in Broome is unlikely to affect your journey. Even in peak holiday periods, the roads are easy to navigate with minimal congestion outside of Carnarvon St and Old Broome Rd. Be mindful that Broome can experience heavy rainfall during the wet season and reduced speeds are recommended to handle the slippery roads.
  • Stay updated on road conditions while driving your hire car in Broome, especially if you're visiting in the monsoon season, between January and March. Be prepared to go slower than the speed limit in wet conditions and never drive through flood waters. There may be official road closures during these months, particularly on unsealed roads. You should also keep an eye on the local tide charts, as this will affect flooding levels. The conditions can change dramatically with little notice, particularly at floodways and creek crossings.
  • Cheap car hire in Broome allows you to not only easily visit Cable Beach but also drive on the beach itself. The speed limit is 15 km/h, and you must drive between the high and low water mark. Bear in mind there are a few areas where access is more limited, such as at Gantheaume Point, but there are always clear signs indicating where you can and can't drive. You also can't drive in sand dunes or lagoon areas. Despite it being such a popular activity, Cable Beach is so large that it's easy to find room to drive and a quiet spot to set up for a day at the beach.
  • If you plan on taking a longer road trip, Western Australia has hundreds of rest stops where you can take a break. Check the local laws if you plan on sleeping overnight or taking a nap in your car. It's generally legal to sleep in your car in Western Australia, but some local councils have laws against it and there are often restrictions when it comes to parks and beaches. Rest stops are a simple way to take a break, and they often have toilets, changing rooms and picnic areas. Most rest stops allow you to stay for up to 24 hours.
  • Intermediate rental cars in Broome are around 45% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in Broome

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Broome?

    Wide streets throughout the city allow larger vehicles to pass without issue. 4x4 hire cars are popular as many visitors enjoy the flexibility of being able to head off road. If you are planning to do some extended driving and value fuel efficiency, compact models are fantastic options.

  • What’s the speed limit in Broome?

    In commercial and residential areas where no speed sign is present, the default limit is 50 km/h. School zones and shopping districts around Chinatown reduce to 40 km/h. Major arterial roads can range from 60–90 km/h, while motorways are capped at 100 km/h unless otherwise stated.

  • Where are the best places to park in Broome?

    Free street parking is available across Broome with time restrictions commonly set at around 2h in commercial areas. Undercover spaces next to Chinatown are available at Paspaley Plaza Car Park, taking the stress out of leaving your hire car in the sun.

You can also recharge at Broome Visitor Centre or nearby at Horizon Power. Horizon Power also has charging stations on the other side of town, near Broome Golf Club.

  • How old do I need to be to get a hire car in Broome?

    Most Broome car hire companies lend to drivers 21 and older. Drivers aged 21 to 24 will usually incur a Young Driver Surcharge.

Bear in mind that there are also often higher surcharges or restrictions on certain types of vehicles for younger drivers.

Did not get the car because my licience was lost on the boat and they would not release until a licience was provided. I got a SMS copy from the ship 2 days later but no car was available even told there would be when I phone Dollar on 12 July 2024. I hired a car from Budget
