Awake to great views, pack and move on toward Kalbarri








Just south of Denham (Shark Bay)

Stopping at Shell Beach having all the local beaches formed from tiny pure white shells,

no sand at all.

Again head winds made it a slow slog, stopped at Neeren rest area with about 10 other campers, bit of a noisy night as close to Hwy.








Nerren Nerren Rest Area 100k north Kalbarri and our 1st rain for 5 months

Woke up to a strange noise on Tuesday morning…. Rain!!!!.... and as we drove it pelted down, we had not seen rain since May when we were in Alice Springs. Arrived in Kalbarri about lunchtime, lucky to get into c/park as its school hols and everything is packed.

This is Kalbarri beach been like this all down the coast, to rough to use boat

Booked in for 2 days but cold and rainy weather, most of the time was spent inside the bus, but did have a nice meal at local restaurant.

Thursday checkout the coast from the cliff tops, its changed from beaches to rugged coastline, lunch at Northampton, nice little town then to a free camp, only travelled about 90k for the day.

Coastal lookout just south of Kalbarri

Friday a huge 30k drive to Coronation Beach camp, once again so windy, no fishing or boating, will stay a couple of days rather than c/parks in Geraldton.








Coronation Beach and Maz's collection of rubbish from the beach

Saturday took a drive 30k to Geraldton, checked out the farmers market, food stock up and a little retail therapy, back to Coronation Beach.
