Newman to Broome road trip: Distance, time & best stops

Newman to Broome road trip: Sandfire Roadhouse to Eco Beach

The Sandfire Roadhouse is just before 80 Mile Beach and you will almost certainly need to fill up on fuel here. The next fuel stop is the Roebuck Plains Roadhouse, 287km away.

However, between Eighty Mile Beach and the Roebuck Plains Roadhouse, there are a few accommodation possibilites.

The Port Smith Caravan Park is on a natural lagoon by the coast, 481km from Port Hedland. Meanwhile, nearer Broome are the Barn Hill Station and Eco Beach resort. The latter is by a considerable distance the most attractive place to stay on the drive from Karratha to Broome. It also comes with a surprisingly good restaurant, as well as guided walks, sunset cruises, morning yoga sessions and fishing tours.
