Days 304 to 315.
Bremer Bay was a must do after Albany. We had been told by a WA family we met that it was their favourite place to go. I understand why. It is quiet but with lots of beaches nearby.
We enjoyed fishing in the boat harbor and on the bay. We both caught fish!
Whales surprised us in the boat harbour! A mum and baby came right up to where we were fishing!!! Wonderful!
We did the requisite sightseeing. Native Dog Beach and Blossoms Beach were standouts.
The local museum was fascinating. It had lots of vintage cars and motor bikes, as well as pioneer equipment.
Ravensthorpe was our next stop. We used this as a base to visit Wave Rock (a 400km round trip!)
It was worth it – a fantastic natural formation. Hippo’s Yawn another.
Esperance was our next base to experience the delights of the southern coastline.
We have a great view of the ocean from our site! We saw a seal and a pod of dolphins on a walk into the township from the park.
The Great Ocean Drive is one of Australia’s most spectacular scenic drives. It goes past beautiful beaches and showcases the magnificence of the area.
Cape Le Grande National Park has some of the most pristine beaches we have seen on our travels. Beautiful!
We were able to indulge in a game of golf at Esperance Golf Course. The golf holes meander around numerous lakes so water in play on most holes.
Sheena won the match 3/2.
