Broome's Staircase to the Moon

This natural phenomenon is caused by a full moon reflecting off the exposed mudflats at Roebuck Bay at extremely low tides, to create a beautiful optical illusion of a staircase reaching to the moon. Occurs March through to October. Check out the Broomewa.com Events Calendar for dates and times of the next Staircase to the Moon and then watch it LIVE on www.broomewebcam.com. If you can take a snapshot of the staircase using the webcam, send it to us and we will put it in our album.
