Fitzgerald River National Park



200km drive to Ravensthorpe. Mining town in decline but good supermarket. Another 50kms to Hopetoun. Rough sea and going dark as we checked into the campground. Old fashioned but OK. Some rain at night but lots of shelter from trees.

Thursday morning drove 30kms through Fitzgerald River national park. Clear sunny great views over the turquoise sea. Hammersley Inlet campground at the end of the road was more for vans than tents. Track 30mins to sea which is magnificent. Another 30mins to Tamala Karst lookout. Lots of shells, wild sea, flowers and hills. Driving back we stopped for lunch at Mylies Beach. So many flies. 1 hour walk up Mt Barren east. 2 hour drive to Esperance with little traffic.
