  • Coral Bay

    June 5, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    Coral Bay would have to be one of my favorites. We stayed at Peoples Caravan Park on a beach front site. We went in a Turtle and glass bottom boat snorkel tour and snorkels just of the beach straight onto the Ningaloo Reef. Great spot to just relax and do as little or a much as you want.Read more

  • Exmouth

    June 9, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    Exmouth is a great town. It sits on the edge of the Cape Range National Park and the Ningaloo Reef. We hiked Charles Knife Gorge, went on a boat tour of Yardie Creek and swam at Osprey Bay but the highlight was our day out swimming with the Whalesharks. We were also lucky enough to see humpback whales, sea mantarays and reef sharks. We really enjoyed it here and stayed for 10 nights.Read more

  • Bullara Station

  • Karijini National Park

    June 22, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    We stayed at Tom Price Tourist Park and so glad we did. This was a lovely park with green grass and much better than staying on the red dirt in the National Park. Karijini National Park is beautiful with all it’s gauges and swimming holes. We managed to do Dales Gorge, Fortescue Falls, Fern Pool, Jeffry’s Gorge and Hamarsley Gorge. We also did a tour of the Rio Tinto Mine at Tom Price.Read more

  • Port Hedland

  • Broome

    Broome is just the most amazing place. Such a mix of people. The colors of the red dirt meets the blue ocean, Cape Leveque, the Kimberley, Pearl farms, markets, outdoor cinema and of course a he famous Cable Beach. We loved Broome. Stayed at Discovery Park Town Park.Read more

  • Bungle Bungles

    July 19, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

    Purnululu National Park. What an experience and definitely one you don’t want to miss. We loved our time here. We did a tour out to the Bungle Bungles (which I highly recommend if you want to save your 4x4). Cathedral Gorge and Echidna Chasm were amazing places to see and mine nothing else you will ever see in your life. We met some awesome people on the tour and had dinner at the Baravan Bar with everyone from the tour that night. We stayed at the Bungle Bungle Caravan Park which was basic but perfect for where we were.Read more

  • Kununurra

Did a river cruise, Ivanhoe Crossing, Hoochery Distillery, Sandlewood shop, Zebra stone gallery, Emma Gorge and El Questro Station. Loved Kununurra.Read more

    Mataranka is paradise in the middle of know where.
    The hot springs are absolutely beautiful. We also visited Bitter Springs up the road which were just as nice. The Mataranka Homestead where we stayed was so much fun. They had Nathan the whip cracker there and we had a great night watching him and the footy on the big screen. Great place.Read more

  • Daly Waters Pub

    August 7, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 33 °C

    This iconic pub was a great stay going across to Townsville. We had such a good night and a great feed of beef and barra while watching country music singer Tom Maxwell. We had the best caravan site just outside the side entrance and one of only a few grass sites. We visited Tim’s Junk Yard which was well worth the visit. On our way to Daly Waters we also went through Larramah and stoped off at the Pink Pantha Pub along the way asked where Patty was.Read more

  • Torrens Creek Exchange Hotel

    August 9, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

We stopped here for a bear and loved this little pub called the Praire Hotel.Read more

  • Fitzroy Island

    August 17, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    Fitzroy Island is just off the coast of Cairns and so we spent the day here. Went to Nudey Beach and enjoyed the very steep walk to the lighthouse. Well worth the visit when staying in Cairns. It’s about a 45 minute ferry ride from Cairns and the water is amazing. Warm and clear.Read more
