Day 58 - Esperance to Bremer Bay

What a beautiful drive out of Esperance, for over an hour we were treated to huge Pine Trees, green paddocks full of crops, Groves of Salmon Gum (had to Google why they are growing them - Panelling and Flooring), large flocks of Sheep and herds of Cows, all different colours.

Staying at Bremer Bay Caravan Park which has lovely green grass sites, so nice after having either granite or concrete. We even put the Awning out today, its only the second time this trip that we felt it was safe to do so.

We love this town already, arrived at 1.30 and were out exploring by 3pm. Turquoise Beaches, White Sand, big smooth Boulders which unfortunately didn't have any seals but looked like they should. So many bays and headlands facing various angles so all have different outlook.

The first beach we went to was Bremer Beach which is where the estuary reaches the ocean, then drove to Fishery Beach - looks good for fishing. Then found Short Beach which wasn't on our GPS but we went exploring, there were 2 people on a beautiful beach fishing and had a bucket full of 4kg Salmon and still getting hits - will be back to this spot.

Tried to find Point Henry which was on the map but no signs, took a punt and drove down a rough, narrow track which looked to be going the right direction.

We got 3/4 of the way down there and had to stop, jumped out of the car to see a pod of about 8 Whales who were playing quite close to the shore. So excited to see so many together and obviously having fun.

It was getting dark so we headed back to Van, will return tomorrow to go fishing and hopefully see some more Whales.En savoir plus
