Exmouth Cape Holiday Park

Nach einem feinen Abschiedsessen in der schmucken Hafenanlage von Exmouth haben wir uns am folgenden Morgen nach einem viel zu kurzen Aufenthalt bei Andrea & Daniel verabschiedet. Das Flugzeug, dass uns nach Exmouth, rund 90 Minuten Flugzeit noerdlich von Perth bringen sollte, hatte ueber eine Stunde Verspaetung wegen technischer Probleme und sah von aussen deutlich besser aus als von innen. So oder so kamen wir aber sicher in der Royal Australian Air Force Base Learmonth an, welche gleic...

Day 2 - Wed 22nd April Nanga Bay to Exmouth, 650 km Waking up we both agreed we slept poorly. I was in my van on a foam mattress that lost it buoyancy in the middle. Mark was in a swag open to the stars on a windy night. We got on the road pronto and headed 10 km North to 'Shell Beach'. As the name suggested, and like Nanga Bay, the long sweeping beach was dense thick in shells. Underneath the loose shells was a hard formation from the slow composure of the shells over hundreds of years. We s...

Day 3 - Thurs 23rd April Exmouth, Aborted Whale Shark Experience Alarm 6.30am, it's time for THE Experience of a lifetime. At the dive shop for 7am we registered and jumped on the bus for the 40 min trip to the jetty. I had a quick search for my PADI diving card but could not find it. This could be trouble but the guy offered to search the PADI database instead. Cool. On the bus we got the talk about keeping our distance from the large plankton loving mammals. It was the 2nd time I had heard ...

It took us two hours drive from Coral Bay to Exmouth which is just a small town in the North West corner of WA about 1,280 Km (14 hours!) North of Perth. In Exmouth we would often see random emu's just wandering around! The town is on the egde of the Ningaloo Reef Marine Park which is comparable to the Great Barrier Reef in length and size, but just doesn't have half the number of visitors. Exmouth is on the edge of Cape Range National Park which is main land area next to the marine Park and ...

Gday...sorry I've been offline for a while. The Australian heat's such a distraction.....it makes you want to do absolutely nothing! I'm currently in Kununurra at the top end of Western Australia, sweating to death and glad to be seeking refuge in this air conditioned Internet room. So, let's get back to it.....where did I last leave you all? Ah, that's right...I was off to Exmouth....following a 19 hour bus ride. I spent an awesome week in Exmouth exploring the Ningaloo Reef, both snorkeling...

Abbiamo ancora negli occhi il povero canguro di ieri sera, quando Mafalda entra trionfante nella piccola cittadina di Exmouth. Altre centinaia di chilometri fatti oggi, un altro migliaio prima di arrivare a Perth. La giornata in macchina l'abbiamo passata concentrandoci su eventuali animali da schivare: ai soliti segnali di bordo strada "attenzione canguri" e "attenzione bufali", oggi se ne sono aggiunti un paio mai visti. Ci e' voluto un po' per decifrare le strane figure che vi erano conten...

ok so it is hot. i mean 47 degrees, and i am sat here, just in a bikini, in the middle of the camp kitchen, sweating my a-hole off because it's that hot. we're in exmouth now and we should be out there, looking at the ship wreck and visiting the clothing optional beach to see tits and turtles, but it's just too damn hot so we're literally doing bugger all until it starts to get a little cooler. while we wait however, it gives me plenty of time to get you up to speed with where we've been and ...

ok so i have just eleven minutes to tell you about our trip back to perth or whatever the minutes allow... so anyway, after heading out of fremantle, we drive back to perth, picking up yet more stuff for the van - power leads, chairs etc - to make our journey as self sufficient and cheap as possible. once in perth, we head to the central campsite, which happens to be way, way outside of town, to camp up for the night, where, not yet being fully prepared for the 'on the road' life, we order in...
