TOUR ITINERARY

Day 1 | Perth to Fitzgerald River National Park

** Wave Rock, open roads and our first night in the wild**

We leave Perth early and head east through the Wheatbelt, watching the city
slowly give way to wide open farmland and country towns. Our first stop is
York, Western Australia’s oldest inland town, where we grab coffee and ease
into the road trip properly. ** __**

From here, we continue to one of WA’s most recognisable landmarks, Wave Rock.
Rising out of the landscape like a giant frozen wave, it is one of those
places that looks even stranger in real life than it does in photos.

“ The classic WA road trip stop that everyone wants a photo of.”

As the day rolls on, the scenery becomes more remote. Long stretches of road,
huge skies and the feeling that we are getting properly off grid.

By late afternoon, we arrive at Fitzgerald River National Park, one of the
most biodiverse regions in Australia. This part of the coast feels wild and
untouched, especially once we reach Four Mile Campground with the ocean nearby
and barely another soul around.

After dinner, we settle into camp and roll out our swags beneath the stars.

Accommodation: Swag camping with amenities at Four Mile Campground

Meals Included: Dinner

Distance Travelled: Approx. 620 km

Day 2 | Fitzgerald River to Cape Le Grand National Park

** Summit Hikes, Cultural Connection & Squeaky White Sands** __

We start the morning with the climb up East Mount Barren, a short but steep
hike with a bit of scrambling near the top. The climb gets the heart rate
going, but the reward is worth it once the coastline opens up below us.

“ One of those views that makes the early start feel very worthwhile.”

From here, we continue towards Esperance, stopping to stretch our legs and
grab lunch before joining the Dabungool Cultural Experience.

Led by local Wudjari Nyungar guides, we spend time learning about Country,
bush foods, seasonal cycles and the long connection between people and this
coastline. It is relaxed, personal and gives a very different perspective on
the region.

Later in the afternoon, we arrive at Cape Le Grand National Park and set up
camp at Lucky Bay. The water here really is that turquoise, and the sand
somehow manages to squeak beneath your feet. Kangaroos are can sometime be
spotted wandering along the beach, especially later in the day.

“ The kind of beach that barely looks real when you first see it.”

Tonight, we settle in with dinner overlooking one of the best coastal
campsites in the country.

Accommodation: Swag camping with amenities at Lucky Bay

Meals Included: Breakfast, Dinner

Distance Travelled: Approx. 300 km

Day 3 | Exploring Cape Le Grand National Park

** Kangaroo Sunrises in Paradise ** __

Sunrise at Lucky Bay is worth waking up for. The beach is quiet, the light is
soft and there is the possibility we will spot kangaroos on the sand before
the day begins properly.

“ A proper only in Australia moment.”

Those wanting a challenge can tackle the hike up Frenchman Peak, a steep short
climb across granite slabs with sweeping views across the Recherche
Archipelago waiting at the top. It is a tough walk in parts, but usually ends
up being one of the highlights of the trip for those who do it.

The rest of the day is left open to enjoy the national park properly. Some of
us spend the afternoon hiking coastal trails, others swim, relax on the beach
or find a quiet spot to take it all in.

That flexibility is part of what makes Cape Le Grand special. There is no rush
here.

As the sun drops, we return to camp for another relaxed evening by the coast.

Accommodation: Swag camping at Lucky Bay

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Distance Travelled: Approx. 10 km (within the park)

Day 4 | Cape Le Grand to Bremer Bay

** Coastal Trails & Bush Camp Vibes** __

After breakfast, we leave Cape Le Grand behind and begin the drive west. We
stop in Esperance for coffee before continuing through Ravensthorpe, where
there is time for lunch and a quick look at the town’s colourful silo art.

By the afternoon, we reach Bremer Bay, a small coastal town known for its
clear water, rugged coastline and laid back atmosphere.

We spend the afternoon exploring a couple of local walking trails, including a
coastal lookout and an estuary walk where the river meets the sea. Depending
on the season, there is always the chance of spotting seabirds.

Tonight, we stay at Tozer’s Bush Camp, tucked away in native bushland just
outside town. It is simple, relaxed and exactly the sort of place that makes
you appreciate slowing down for a few days.

“ No traffic, no crowds, just bushland and fresh ocean air.”

For anyone still feeling energetic, there is an extra walking loop around camp
before dinner.

Accommodation: Swag camping with amenities at Tozer's Bush Camp

Meals Included: Breakfast, Dinner

Distance Travelled: Approx. 470 km

Day 5 | Bremer Bay to Hamelin Bay

** Rock Pools, Forest Giants & Beachside Camping** __

We continue west this morning, stopping in Albany for coffee before heading
into William Bay National Park.

This part of the coast is famous for Greens Pool and Elephant Rocks, and once
we arrive it is easy to see why. Calm turquoise water, huge granite boulders
and bright white sand make this one of the best swimming spots in Western
Australia.

“ Usually the point where camera rolls start filling up very quickly.”

Leaving the coast behind for a while, we head inland into the tall karri
forests of the southwest. At the Dave Evans Bicentennial Tree, those brave
enough can climb the old fire lookout tree using the metal spikes built into
the trunk. Even making it partway up gives a pretty good adrenaline rush.

By evening, we arrive at Hamelin Bay, where we camp close to the beach and
settle in for dinner beside the ocean.

Accommodation: Swag camping with amenities at Hamelin Bay Holiday Park

Meals Included: Breakfast, Dinner

Distance Travelled: Approx. 520 km

Day 6 | Hamelin Bay to Perth via Margaret River

** Stingrays, Surf Breaks & a Tasting Finale** __

Our final day starts slowly at Hamelin Bay, where those keen for an early
start can take an optional sunrise walk along a small section of the Cape to
Cape Track between camp and the Hamelin Bay Observation Deck. Following the
coastline as the sun comes up, it is a peaceful way to start the morning, with
ocean views the entire way and a chance of spotting stingrays moving through
the shallow water below.

From here, we continue into the Margaret River region, with free time in town
to grab lunch, wander through the local shops or settle in with a coffee
before the afternoon tastings begin.

No trip through Margaret River would feel complete without good food and wine,
so we spend the afternoon visiting local tasting venues and cellar doors
across the region. It is a relaxed finish to the trip and a good chance to
unwind after a big week on the road.

“ A pretty solid way to wrap up six days of beaches, bush camps and open
roads.”

Our final stop is in Busselton, where we stretch our legs with a walk along
the historic 1.8 km jetty before stopping into Little Otto’s Big Choc Shop. It
is the perfect place to grab a final treat or pick up some chocolate to take
home for friends and family.

From here, we settle in for the drive back to Perth, usually with everyone
swapping favourite moments, beach rankings and photos from the week.

Meals Included: Breakfast

Distance Travelled: Approx. 350 km
