Karratha and Dampier

We made our way to Karratha stopping at Robe River Rest Stop and Fortescue River Roadalong the way.
We were greeted by the cows at Robe rest stop there is a river but nowhere to park next to it.
We then stopped at Fortescue River Rd only a small area to park but it's beautiful. I was able to take a photo of the Sturts Dessert Pea.
Onto Karratha it has a lot of money spent in it i assume by the mining companies. However not a lot to do. We did go to the water tank lookout i like the signs showing the town and different dates showing the changes.
From Karratha we went into Dampier (about 20 km away) and saw the Red Dog statue and drove around the town. Unlike Karratha not a lot of money has been spent here.
We also day tripped out to Cossack and Point Samson they are in the next blog.Read more
