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.
