North of Perth to Kalbarri National Park

By 6. March, we were back in Perth and ready to follow the coast north. We had two weeks avaiable and planned to drive as far north as Exmouth and inland as far as Newman. From there, we'd follow the inland route back to Perth. So we still had a lot of driving ahead of us!

The Pinnacles, Monkey Mia, Kalbarri National Park, Ningaloo Reef and Karijini National Park were the main places we wanted to visit.

Death to all flies.

After a day of adventures in the gorges, we drank a well-earned Emu and ate & chips on the beach. 

The rugged coast near Kalbarri. There were many shipwrecks along this coast in the early days of settlement.
