Travelled through Hopetoun on route to Fitzgerald River National Park. It has the feel of a SA town, with some lovely old buildings dating to early 1900s. Spent time parked on the wharf area, with a good boat ramp although seas a tad rolly. This would make a good fishing spot. There is a very good 48hour RV stop along the coast road heading east but within walking of the shops. You must be fully self contained.
We stayed two nights at the Beachside Caravan Park after the stay in the National Park. We had easy access to the beach, which provided good herring (tommy rough) fishing. The weather remained overcast and gloomy with periods of rain. We have seen very little sunshine on this coast.Read more
