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…
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…
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…
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…
Fowlers Bay
Fowlers Bay could have been a good stop, however the beach was uninspiring with lots of seaweed. We had 2 nights here and Casey’s and Rohans moved sites after 1 night to get a bit more wind protection and less…
Streaky Bay
With heatwave still hanging around we had a last minute stop at Streaky Bay. Everyone was glad to see the ocean and get our feet wet before our next 5 days crossing the Nullarbor. A quick stop in the morning…
Clare Valley
We arrived in Clare Valley the Friday before the Australia Day weekend and Ronnie’s birthday. We stayed at the Clare Valley Caravan Park at Leasinham whilst the other team were staying at Auburn. We met up with the other crew…
Benson Park
On our way towards South Australia and we stopped at Mildura for a coffee. As we were about to leave the other half of our travel team showed up. So we had a nice catch up with Linda, Michael, Gary…
Robinvale
After looking for another free camp along the Murray, all we found were dust bowls. So we moved on to Robinvale with some nice grass and facilities just for one night.
Wattle Tree Beach
From Oura we fuelled up in Wagga Wagga before heading to Mulwala for water top up and lunch. Wattle Tree Beach is a Regional NSW Park just over the Murray River from the Victorian town of Cobram. The river here…
Oura Beach
Oura Beach Reserve is a nice little camping spot just near Wagga Wagga on the Murrumbidgee River. Great place to relax and have a swim in the flowing water. The water was flowing pretty fast so luckily Dave and Mark…
Sutton Forest
After surviving the drive through Sydney in the pouring rain we stayed at the Sutton Forest Inn for an overnight stop. It was a great pub camp providing a change of scenery and temperature (it was freezing overnight – down…
Kylie’s Beach
Kylie’s Beach is a great little campground in Crowdy Bay National Park. It’s a little quieter than Diamond Head around the corner but still has nice walks and lots of kangaroos, birds and a few goannas. Day 2 at Kylie’s…
