Western Australia October 2019 Road Trip Itinerary
We just wrapped up our blitz tour through the Kimberley region in Northern Western Australia.
And now — the next plan is already in the works: a 4WD journey along the wild west coast.
This draft route comes complete with already-booked car rental and flights:
Moscow – Singapore – Perth, and Exmouth – Perth – Singapore – Moscow.
We’ve also locked in a rooftop tent-equipped 4WD starting in Perth and ending in Exmouth.
This rig is different from the one we used in Broome — the Safari Landcruiser 4WD camper.
Fingers crossed we like it (no photos online yet — it’s a brand new model).
Top National Parks in Western Australia
We’ve got our eyes set on two big ones: Francois Peron National Park and Karijini National Park.
Two absolute gems of Western Australia.
The rest? Bonus stops along the way:
— Pinnacles Desert — phallic limestone wonders in the sand
— Kalbarri National Park
— Ningaloo Marine Park with Coral Bay (hello, whale sharks!)
— And pelicans + dolphins at Monkey Mia
Too much Australia this year? Maybe. But let’s call it a makeup trip.
We were supposed to do this back in October 2016, but life got in the way.
So now, it’s payback time. Homework delayed — but not forgotten.
Afterwards, we head to the sea — Thailand for a proper defrost.
Less than a month left! Just writing this so I remember to set an alarm and not miss the flight.
