  • Shelter Bay

    16. marraskuuta 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    Shelter Bay in Edel Land NP is exactly as it sounds, a beautiful sheltered bay on the Strait between the mainland and Dirk Hartog Island. It was incredible to see so many clams on the rock shelf just on the waters edge, Olivia thought it was very funny that they shot water out when they were touched!

    It's so wonderful to be able to teach Olivia about this amazing country we live in, showing her the best of nature right in front of her eyes!

  • Eagle Bluff

    14. marraskuuta 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 23 °C

    We had an unexpected overnight after tyre troubles and this was worth the extra night. A fabulous low cost camp, overlooking Shark Bay, not too windy and another beautiful sunset.

  • Peron Homestead

    13. marraskuuta 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    After a big day bouncing around the sand tracks of the FPNP, we were looking forward to a warm Artesian Hot Spring. But WOW was it hot! At 40+ degrees it was almost too hot to enjoy. Despite this, we loved roaming around the homestead discovering the past which enjoyed us the hot spring bath to ourselves!Lue lisää

  • Denham

    11. marraskuuta 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 27 °C

    We have loved the relaxed feel of Denham, a quaint little seaside village with spectacular views and being in a World Heritage area, so much to see and explore.

  • Feeling Thankful

    11. marraskuuta 2023, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    Oh our goodness, what a day. After a slow morning we were 2nd on the scene of a caravan roll-over accident in the middle of nowhere. Luckily the passengers were not injured, but their van is a complete right-off having flipped on its roof. With no phone signal they were unable to call for assistance. We thankfully have a personal SOS device that we could call for help, we always hope we never have to use it, but thankful that we had it to help another fellow traveller. The amazing travelling caravan community stopped to help, it's definitely a reminder to stay safe in the road and not to swerve for a goanna crossing the road.Lue lisää

  • Wooramel Artesian Baths

    10. marraskuuta 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 27 °C

    Who can say no to an Artesian Hot Spring bath, especially when they look this inviting! The water was warm, dad & Oli came out looking like an Oompa Loompa thanks to the high iron content and mum had a great laugh at their expense. The best thing was an early morning dip when we had the baths all to ourselves, watching the morning sun rise.Lue lisää

  • Wooramel 4WD Adventure

    10. marraskuuta 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 29 °C

    Dad was treated to a 4WD track through the station, down to the waters of Shark Bay, past the old Sheering Sheds and across the river bed. We enjoyed discovering different areas of the Station, getting up close to the resident cows and discovering the past history of the Station.Lue lisää

  • Wooramel Riverside Retreat

    10. marraskuuta 2023, Australia ⋅ 🌬 27 °C

    Wooramel was another fantastic station stay, with a super impressive looking cafe and community area (unfortunately again we were too late in the season to enjoy), the Artesian Hot Baths and such a picturesque 'upside down' river, we stopped in an amazing spot with a swing hung from the river gums, in the river bed where Oli played for hours. Mother Nature's playground. A station with something for everyone. We thoroughly loved our overnight stay despite the ferocious winds that blew a gale all day and all night!Lue lisää
