Jarrahdale
From Coogee Beach we headed 100km east to Jarrahdale free camp. We stayed here in 2023 but this time it was a lot busier but still a great camp to base ourselves. Once we set up, our neighbours came over…
Coogee Beach
We planned Easter at Coogee Beach to catch up with the Bradbys and the Turners before they headed East. Unfortunately the Bradbys headed home from Albany as Mike’s mum wasn’t doing so well so it was just us and the…
Rockingham
On Monday we had a huge drive of 60 mins from Mandurah to Rockingham. We stayed at Cee and See caravan park which was across the road from the foreshore on grass sites but very comfortable. The grain stores were…
Mandurah
After leaving Geraldton we headed south to avoid Tropical Cyclone Narelle. We spent one night at Fremantle Village again waking up to the rain. Calling around we found 2 nights available at Madurah Tourist Park. With a quick stop off…
Geraldton
With the uncertainty of TC Narelle, we decided to head to Geraldton early to get car serviced and potentially head north to Kalbarri. However plans change!! Sunset Beach Holiday Park was on the Northside of Geraldton and we snagged a…
Sandy Cape
After realising we had been here before in 2023, we enjoyed sitting on the dunes watching the sunset, hiking up to the lookout and generally relaxing. We arrived before Dave and Veronica and cruised around looking for a better site…
Cervantes
We had a quick stop on the way from Lancelin to Sandy Cape. We parked the van up at Ronsard Reserve and got the bikes down. Explored from there to Thirsty Point reserve, along bikeway towards town, on the beach…
Lancelin
We headed to Lancelin from Fremantle via Hilary’s Boat Harbour. Hilary’s was interesting with a number of shops and restaurants overlooking the water. This is where the other ferry’s to Rottnest Island leave from. Lancelin Caravan Park slowly filled up…
Fremantle
We arrived at Fremantle Village Sunday afternoon after a decent drive from Denmark. Quick stops for coffee at Kojonup and then rest area for lunch on the way. On Monday, we woke up to beautiful weather and headed out on…
Fonty’s Pool
On Monday we travelled from Jarrahdene to Fonty’s Pools stopping off in Pemberton to gather information from Visitor Centre and coffee at Jarrah and Jade cafe. Fonty’s Pools ended up being closer to Manjimup but was still a good base…

We said our goodbyes to the Turners and Bradbys as we had to check out Friday morning. Wanting to stay in Margaret River for another night, Veronica had sweet talked Ulf at Jarvis Estate to fit us in for a…
Margaret River
With Gary’s 70th birthday locked in we headed to Margaret River from Albany with a view to loop back around to Augusta, Walpole and Denmark. On our drive to Margaret river we stopped off at Manjimup for lunch and lots…
Albany
We had a lot of variety as we revisited Albany after exploring here in 2023. When we arrived we went straight to Middleton Beach as it was going to be the warmest, clearest day. With a roped off shark enclosure…
Moingup Spring
This campground is in Stirling Ranges NP and was our base for hikes. It’s only been open for a few months after being destroyed in fires back in 2018. Our first hike was up to Bluff Knoll. A massive climb…
Bremer Bay
After leaving Hopetoun on Thursday we headed to Bremer Bay with a stop at Jerramungup for lunch stop. We stayed at Bremer Bay Beaches caravan park which was a few kms out of town but on the way to the…
Hopetoun
Hopetoun was a plan B with the weather turning cold and wet. It was also a chance to have a nice dinner to celebrate Karen’s birthday. The town is quite nice and the beaches would be amazing in sunny warm…
Munglinup Beach
After a great time on the beaches in Cape Le Grand NP we headed west in search of more beach opportunities. Munglinup Beach had good reviews so we headed there with Dave and Veronica while Michael and Linda and Gary…
Lucky Bay
Lucky Bay was first on our list of stops in WA for a reason. The beaches are amazing and we wanted to be there in the peak of the summer season. Camping at Lucky Bay was great. Lots of furry…
Esperance
After our trek across the Nullarbor we were all excited to arrive at RAC Esperance and have running water and grass 😜 for next 3 nights. After a wander along the foreshore we headed to our first beach, West Beach…
Nullarbor
This time when crossing the Nullarbor, we took 4 days, 3 nights. We took our time stopping off at Head of the Bight visitor centre. Whilst it wasn’t whale watching season we got our first glimpse of the Bunda cliffs.…
