Broke is a rural locality of the Shire of Manjimup in the South West region of Western Australia, stretching along the coastline of the Southern Ocean.

The South Western Highway forms the north-eastern border of the locality.

[2][3] The origins of the name of the inlet and locality are debated, being linked to Brockman, Broke or Brooks.

[4] The inlet and locality's names are thought to be based on Philip Broke, captain of HMS Shannon, a frigate of the Royal Navy, best known for its victory over USS Chesapeake in 1813.

[5] Broke is on the traditional lands of the Mineng people of the Noongar nation.
