Day 2 - Fitzgerald River NP to Esperance
We arrive in Esperance with time to have a look around and after a short drive arrive at the Cape Le Grand National Park to set up camp only metres from a picture postcard beach. The afternoon is free to explore this stunning coastal park and later we hike up the granite formation known as Frenchman Peak. (BLD)
Day 3 – Cape le Grand to Newman Rocks
There's free time this morning. You may wish to take a coastal walk or go for a swim, body surf or just relax and read a good book while lying on a pure white beach (with the local kangaroos). Late morning we travel along the Eyre Highway and set up our bush camping site for the evening. (BLD)
Day 4 - Newman Rocks to Koonalda
Today will certainly give you a sense of the size of this vast and ancient land. The Nullarbor Plain is the largest solid piece of limestone in the world and is internationally recognised for its underground cave and lake system. Today we travel through some diverse Australian country and stop to visit Eucla
Telegraph Station, a telegraph town buried by sand dunes. Then it's on to Koonalda Homestead ruins where we stop for the night. (BLD)
Day 5 - Koonalda to Coodlie Park
We see the majestic Nullarbor Cliffs and stop at the famous wombat-camel-kangaroo road sign. In season [June – October] the Southern Right Whales migrate to the Head of the Bight. We drive onto the Nullarbor Plain and across the dingo fence through Yalata Aboriginal lands. Then we stop at Ceduna Arts and Cultural Centre were you can learn more about the different styles and meaning behind many forms of indigenous art. Our overnight camp tonight is at Coodlie Park Farm Retreat. (BLD)
Day 6 - Coodlie Park Farm Retreat
Today we drive to Baird Bay for an optional experience on a boat, viewing and swimming with Dolphins and Australian Sea Lions. A short drive brings us to Murphy's Haystacks; incredible granite rock formations sculptured into wondrous and weird shapes over millions of years. Our hosts at Crocodile Park Hassie, Jo and family will take us on a nocturnal wildlife tour looking for Australia's national emblems: Kangaroos, Wombats and Emus. Our overnight camp tonight is at Coodlie Park Farm Retreat. (BLD)
Day 7 - Coodlie Park to Port Lincoln
This morning we learn to surf and then check out the quirky Colton Bakery, on the side of the highway in the middle of nowhere. At Locks Well we go for a walk and marvel at the man made 291 steps that go straight down a cliff face to one of the regions premier salmon beach fishing hotspots. Our overnight camp is at Mikkira Station with koalas nestling in the trees around our camp. (BLD)
Day 8 - Port Lincoln
Today is a extreme day of fun! Those that dare come face to face with Great White Sharks on a cage dive
(optional experience). This is followed with a visit to Whalers Way Conservation Park and then we're off to swim with tuna in Port Lincoln. This experience is like swimming with lightning as these massive fish go into frenzy as you snorkel around the tuna cage. At Glen Forest Wildlife Park we get up close and personal with Australian wildlife before heading to our overnight camp. (BLD)
