However, any elevated location facing east toward Roebuck Bay will offer a good vantage point to watch the moon rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event typically happens for two or three nights each month during the full moon, from March to October. At Town Beach, the Staircase to the Moon Night Market is held on one of the event nights from 4 pm to 8 pm. Grab dinner from a food van, enjoy live music, and browse stalls showcasing local crafts and wares as you wait for the moon to appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check the Visit Broome website for the latest Staircase to the Moon dates and see if they coincide with your stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo: Tourism Western Australia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":979,"template":"","categories":[99],"activity-type":[113,100,102,101,111],"time-of-year":[107,105,106],"class_list":["post-971","events","type-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-attractions","activity-type-accessible-facilities","activity-type-kid-friendly","activity-type-nature-experiences","activity-type-pet-friendly","activity-type-romantic","time-of-year-autumn","time-of-year-spring","time-of-year-winter"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
