Exmouth

Exmouth was an eclectic mix of natural wonders and technological icons.

The Exmouth Gulf is legendary for its reef and wildlife including turtles, whales, dugongs, rays and sharks of all kinds, and a lot of fish! We saw some of these snorkeling, by drone, and just walking along the beach.

Also, there were land encounters with emus walking through the caravan park.

The European history of Exmouth is interesting in that it is only about 60 years ago the US Navy decided they needed a base for sending radio signals to submarines in the area so they created the base, and pretty much the town. The radio is still there, but run by the Aust government, and it has 13 radio towers, one of which is the tallest structure in Australia!Read more
