Staircase to the Moon

Staircase to the Moon is a natural optical phenomenon at Roebuck Bay in Broome, Western Australia, where the rising full moon reflects across the exposed tidal mudflats at low tide, creating the illusion of a staircase leading to the moon. Best viewed from Town Beach, it occurs for two to three nights each month between March and October and is a major seasonal attraction for visitors to Broome.
