Best tide state to fish Broome (Town Beach / Gantheaume Point / Roebuck Bay)

Spring tides run 9–10 metres and rip current through Roebuck Bay and out past Gantheaume Point at 4–6 knots. Boat fishing demands serious tide planning, and shore fishing demands tide-chart literacy — fishing the wrong stage on the wrong rock is how people get cut off. The dry season (May–October) is the prime trip window with calm seas and consistent easterlies. The wet season (November–April) brings cyclones, irukandji and box jellyfish, and most charter operators stand down. Water clarity drops in the build-up.
