A vast land virtually untouched and unchanged by man, is the Kimberley region of the extreme north of Western Australia. It is described as being one of the world’s last great wilderness areas and has been selected as one of the top ten holiday regions by the Lonely Planet and won Australian Traveller’s Reader’s…
We had a small taste of the Ningaloo Reef north of Carnarvon along the Quobba coastline and liked what we saw. However we did not realize that we were in for a treat once we travelled northwards to a little resort town called Coral Bay and then to the piece de resistance – Exmouth. Diving…
During our travels around this big wide country of ours, Australia, I have marveled at the ever changing spectacular landscapes out of the car windscreen. As we have meandered from state to state and town to town I have captured some of these dramatic changes in scenery with my camera through the car windscreen. Hence,…
Located about 300 kilometres south from Perth in the wonderful South West of Western Australia, the stupendous Southern Forests are home to many unique and iconic attractions and experiences. The region begins in the south east corner with the idyllic town of Walpole, towards the southern coast and the town of Northcliffe, then heads northwards…

The ultimate Western Australia road trip…
We have been on the road for 13 weeks now attempting to circumnavigate the coastline of Australia from Queensland to Western Australia in a clockwise direction in a 16 foot caravan. It has not been without its ‘teething problems’ and lots of ‘counting to ten’, as it really does test one’s patience at times! You tend to…
We spent a lot of our precious travelling time in South Australia and were amazed by her diversity and beauty. However, it was time to say goodbye and make our way across The Nullarbor to another State and a whole new set of adventures and places to enjoy. Our Nullarbor experience began with a quick overnight…
With rugged cliffs that tower over the pounding Southern Ocean, secluded white sandy beaches bordered by mountainous sand dunes and native scrubland, this coast is unique and as untamed as the ‘Wild West’. There are cliff top drives with views that will take your breath away and calm watered bays of picturesque little coastal…
After a quick visit to the Yorke Peninsula, we travelled in a northwards direction with the majestic Flinders Ranges to the east and Spencer Gulf to the west, towards Port Augusta, which is befittingly called the ‘Crossroads of Australia’ where Sydney, Perth, Adelaide and Darwin rail lines intersect. It was the beginning of all places…
