Broome Bird Observatory is an educational, scientific and recreational facility near
Broome, Western Australia. It began operating in
1988 under the auspices of
Birds Australia in order to provide a base for the study and enjoyment of the birds of
Roebuck Bay and adjoining areas, especially the migratory
waders for which the area is one of the most important sites in the world. The observatory was formally opened in
1990 and continues to provide accommodation and recreational birding opportunities for visitors as well as research facilities for scientists and ornithological expeditions.
