Broome, on Western Australia's far northwest coast, is particularly prone to cyclones. Many fleets of pearlers were lost to cyclones over several decades in the 19th and early 20th centuries. For example, when a cyclone hit on 22 April 1887, a pearling fleet once more bore the brunt of the storm; thirteen vessels were destroyed and 140 people killed. Eighty Mile Beach (some sources say Ninety Mile Beach), near Broome, was littered with bodies and debris washed up from the battered fleet.
