At Quagi Beach, off the South Coast Highway west of Esperance, there is a Shire campground. It seemed dusty and busy and didn’t hold a lot of appeal for us. Being outside the National Park, campers can bring dogs and so makes it an attractive campsite for some. As well as about 20 dusty sites…
Launching from the beach was easy as Fanny Cove is shallow and sheltered and the sand at the water’s edge is hard. The squid were huge and everywhere – and great fun to catch. We discovered that the squid seem to travel in pairs. When we caught one, there always seemed to be another following…
Somewhere between Bremer Bay and Cape Arid on the beautiful south coast of WA was our destination. This was leaving our options open given it is about a 300km stretch of coast. Our criterion was simple: a place to launch the tinny, a camp site where you are able to see the water and no…
A few hours north of Perth there are some great stretches of coast to camp on. It can be pretty windy, but if you have the right set up, you can hunker down and protect yourself from the wind. We have a few favourite spots along what is aptly known as the ‘Turquoise Coast’ and…
