I went to Derby at first just to get a break from Broome. It's a peaceful and happy town. Time goes slow in Derby. They have beautiful tides and a wonderfully slow-paced lifestyle. I love Derby. I ended up staying four months and never went back to Broome. I look forward to living in Derby again someday. — JENNIFER NEVILL
I have grown up in big cities, but my year in Derby was the best year of my life! — Anonymous
I was with Esso Australia in 1981-1982 and I was assigned an oil prospect near Derby, so I made everal trips to Derby. An interesting place, especially the huge tides in the bay. It was pretty outback when I was there. — James R. Day
