The Location

Port Hedland is the second largest town in the Pilbara region and is located approximately 612km from Broome. Known as Marapikurrinya by the local Indigenous people, this town has a population of almost 16,000 people. The town is renowned for its massive resource industry, long trains, big ships and salt piles. 


Free short-term parking is available for self-contained vehicles for up to 72 hours at Port Hedland Turf Club, McGregor Street. Pets on leads are permitted and both the dump point and potable water are located on-site.


Port Hedland is a great place to visit, especially in August when the town is alive for their North West Festival. Some other local attractions include visiting BHP Billiton and taking a tour of the area, seeing the Staircase to the Moon and the local history and town tour to really get to know the area.
