Day 91 - Broome - Dampier Peninsular

We are off to Smithys Seaside Adventures today. The website recommends not to come in until after 12, so the vans leaving can get through.

180km from Broome, the last 43km are a bit rough with corrugations, large lumps like speed bumps, rocks, and the end 10km is only wide enough for one vehicle.

To add to the excitement, two lads were back burning along the road, so it was very smokey and flames licking the side of the Van. Bit nerve-racking.

Got here and found 'Reception' . A box on the table with a note asking to leave $25 per head per night in an old plastic container, fill out details in a book, welcome ! Love it. 😜

Decided to camp above the beach to enjoy the view and the breeze. Nice sandy spot overlooking Pender Bay. Toilets and cold showers are available, plus great drinking water just outside our site.

The fire came back to bite us when the wind changed early in the evening and filled the whole camp site with thick smoke. Had to close up the Van and put the fans on for the night.Read more
