At the tip of the Dampier Peninsula north of Broome, Cygnet Bay is surrounded by pristine and remote natural beauty. Turquoise water and white sand beaches make the area one of the most beautiful in Western Australia. The pearl farm operates a variety of tours, including tours of the farm, hands-on pearl harvest demonstrations, scenic flights and boat tours to the nearby natural attractions of the Buccaneer Archipelago, and cultural tours led by members of the Bardi (land) and Jawi (island) communities of the Dampier Peninsula.
Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm is a typical stop on full-day guided tours from Broome to Cape Levque.
Cygnet Bay is located 124 miles (200 kilometers) north of Broome. It’s around a two-and-a-half-hour drive from Broome. There is no public transportation access, but the farm partners with a private transit company to offer a shuttle service between Broome and Cygnet Bay on Thursdays and Saturdays. See availability and book at the farm’s website.
Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm is open all year round. The restaurant and accommodations are open seven days a week throughout the year. In the dry season (May through October), pearling tours and sea safaris are offered daily; in the wet season (November through April), they are only available from Wednesday through Sunday.
Located in the historic pearling precinct of Chinatown, the farm’s Broome showroom offers a range of pearls and jewelry from its Pearls of Australia collection. The showroom has an adjoining pearling exhibition space where visitors can learn more about the history and culture of the pearling industry and participate in daily experiences, such as pearl harvests or pearl appreciation sessions.
