Karijini to Eighty Mile Beach

30th April 2013

This morning we were up very early, as we all wanted to see the sunrise in Karijini before we left. It was a fantastic way to start the morning and we were lucky enough to be treated to a violin solo by Chloe (she is making a short DVD for her violin teacher and is playing songs in idyllic spots from our  travels).

We then headed back, had breakfast and packed down ready for the long day ahead as we made our way to Eighty Mile Beach, about 620kms away.

Again the day was a driving day, not much to report apart from passing through Auski Roadhouse where we bumped into a mate of ours, Fraser, who was up doing some tiling work for the owner, of all the places!

We also passed through Port Hedland, where we stopped for supplies and a refuel before making our way into Eighty Mile Beach.

Eighty Mile Beach Caravan Park

When we arrived at Eighty Mile, we felt instantly relaxed and the caravan park was one of the friendliest we have stayed in, we were looking forward to fishing for the Threadfin & Bluenose Salmon that the beach is famous for!
