    25. juli 2022, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    We covered majority of the infamous Gibb River Road in the Prado, but unfortunately she spent the last 230km on the back of a tow truck. Missed a couple of spots but grateful to have seen all the incredible places we have! Hopefully be back on the road soon 🤞🏼Les mer

    Handrail Pool

    6. august 2022, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    The walk into Weano Gorge was another steep descent. The final section of the walk winds through a narrow section of gorge with a stream running beneath your feet. There is a final climb down a large handrail into the aptly named Handrail Pool. We swam across the pool to explore further into the gorge.Les mer

    7. august 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    Our final stop in Karijini was for a refreshing morning swim at Hamersley Gorge. A short walk from the car park and a dip in the natural spa pool was a good way to recover from the previous day's hiking.Les mer

    Charles Knife Canyon

    8. august 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    Located 23km South of Exmouth, Charles Knife Canyon is one of the most spectacular vantage points, with views over the Cape ranges and out to the Exmouth Gulf.

    The road is an impressive feat of engineering traversing many steep inclines. Surveyors had deemed the ranges impassible but Charles Knife surveyed the road himself to enable access for investigative drilling teams from Western Australia Petroleum Pty Ltd, who were in search of oil. This was particularly impressive as Charles Knife was an admistrative officer with no surveying or engineering background.

    Today the road provides a scenic view for visitors down either side, into the deep and eroded canyons.    Les mer

    Ningaloo Reef

    12. august 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    The Ningaloo World Heritage Area stretches more than 300km along the coast of WA. This area is home to over 200 coral, 500 fish, 650 mollusc, 600 crustacean, 1000 marine algae, and 155 sponge species, many of which are endemic to the area. Our visit to Ningaloo started out on a disappointing note with our whale shark swim cancelled due to high winds, but we made the most of our time there and got out in the water every day despite the bad weather. We were treated to an abundance of fish, turtles, rays, dolphins, whales, and, eventually, to whale sharks! An estimated 300-500 whale sharks make their way to Ningaloo annually, and although we were at the shoulder season of this event we were still lucky enough to see 5 different whale sharks on our tour, all juveniles at about 5 metres in length.Les mer

    Shark Bay

    15. august 2022, Australia ⋅ 🌧 23 °C

    Monkey Mia is situated within the Shark Bay World Heritage Area in WA's North West. Famous for its wild dolphin experience, Monkey Mia is surrounded by rusty red sand dunes, white sandy beaches and water teeming with wildlife. On our first day in Monkey Mia we swam out into the water hoping to catch a glimpse of some of the local dolphins, and we were treated to a very close encounter with two friendly dolphins who we later identified by the marks on their fins - Eden, a 19yr old female with a notch on the back and front of her fin from fishing line entanglement, and Jindi, a 4yr old female. The following morning we watched the dolphin feeding, where we were able to see even more of the locals up close while they waited for their breakfast, before heading out for a kayak. Kayaking around the bay we spotted sea turtles, reef sharks, rays, and of course dolphins.

    Despite our final days in Monkey Mia bringing with it torrential winds and rain, we made the most of our time and drove up to Francois Peron national park in the hopes of spotting some more wildlife. We spent hours at Skipjack point watching two dolphins and their calves hunt for fish by herding them into the shallows, and we were even lucky enough to spot some dugongs further out amongst the seagrass.

    On the way back down the coast we stopped in at Shell Beach - a beautiful white beach made up almost entirely of tiny shells from one type of animal, the Fragum cockle. As with our next stop, Hamelin Pool, the combination of high evaporation and the Faure Sill limiting water flow causes the water here to be twice as salty as the sea. The result is a lack of competition and predators for the Fragum cockle, leading to an incredible abundance of this one species.

    After shell beach we headed to Hamelin Pool to view the marine stromatolites. Also called ‘living fossils’, they’ve been at Hamelin Pool for 3.5 billion years. Hamelin Pool is internationally famous as one of only two places on the planet where these living fossils exist. They give us a glimpse into how the planet looked billions of years ago. Stromatolites grow successfully and undisturbed at Hamelin Pool due to the highly saline waters    Les mer
