Welcome to Perth! On arrival, make your own way to your centrally located hotel. The rest of the day is at leisure to explore this vibrant city.

We will leave the city at 7:30am and head to one of Western Australia’s most iconic destinations. The Pinnacles (Nambung National Park) is one of the strangest landscapes you will ever experience. Take a short walk around this limestone “forest” before we hit the road again towards our first big walk.

Our afternoon walk is at the stunningly pristine Mt Lesueur National Park. One of the best wildflower spotting locations in WA, this 7 km loop walk has some fabulous views and many endemic wildflower species. There are definitely some challenges to this walk, with some rocky ground and a few ascents, but it is doable for the everyday walker, and well worth the effort.

After the walk, we will head the short distance to Jurien Bay, where we will stay at the Jurien Bay Motel Apartments, and dinner will be a typical country pub meal down at the local.

Wildflowers, wildflowers and more wildflowers! This is a really easy day, with a short drive out to Hi Vallee Farm in Badingarra, to meet local floral icon Don Williams and his wife Joy. Don will take us on a tour of his property, sharing all his knowledge from years in the bush. Whether you are a casual lover of colour, or a real flower geek, a few hours with this local character is a morning well spent.

After Don and Joy’s place, we will head north (2.5hrs) and roll out the yellow carpet! Whilst you may never have heard of Coalseam Conservation park, you have definitely seen photos of the carpets of colourful everlasting flowers. We have timed the departure of this tour to give us the best chance to see the everlastings at their peak, but nature can be cruel, so there are no guarantees.

There is a flat easy 3km walk within Coalseam which we will do, taking our time to enjoy one of Western Australia’s most memorable experiences.

From Coalseam it is about a 1.5 hr drive to Geraldton, where we will base ourselves for the next two nights.

It’s an exciting day today as we hop on our own charter planes and fly over to the Abrolhos Islands, about 80 km off the coast of Geraldton. We’ll take a scenic flight over the chain of islands, learning about their history and infamous shipwrecks, before setting down at East Wallabi Island. Here you can enjoy a short guided nature walk and a snorkel in the pristine waters.

We return to Geraldton mid/late afternoon and then head up to the picturesque HMAS Sydney memorial lookout for sunset drinks and nibbles.

We start the day with a 1hr 45min drive to Kalbarri. We’ll have a wonderful day today exploring some of the ancient gorges of the Murchison River. We’ll visit Natures Window and walk the 9 km Loop Trail, which takes us from the top of the gorge wall, down into the beautiful gorge itself to walk beside the river. If the weather’s nice, you might enjoy a refreshing swim in the cool water at lunch time.

In the afternoon, we’ll have an easy exploration of the Z Bend Gorge where we will take a short stroll and soak up the tranquil atmosphere.

The views along the Kalbarri coast are nothing short of spectacular – with pink and red layers of sandstone cliffs contrasted against the turquoise Indian Ocean. We’ll walk the length of the Bigurda Trail in the morning. This trail stretches for 8 km along the top of the sea cliffs from Eagle Gorge to the Natural Bridge.

In the afternoon we’ll explore the coastal areas closer to town, including a 3 km loop walk around Mushroom Rock and Rainbow Valley.

After all of the activity of the past few days, it is time to get some kilometres under our belt. We have about 375km to cover today. It’s a long drive to Denham, but we will be able to break up the drive with quite a few spectacular stops. Just outside of Kalbarri we will enjoy the grand views at Hawks Head and Ross Graham Lookout. After a long driving stretch we can stretch our legs admiring the famous 3.5 Billion-year-old stromatolites in Hamelin Pool. That’s billion with a “B”!

Then it’s onwards to Shell Beach for a little wander around this amazing beach, you might even choose to dip your feet into the water. From Shell Beach we make our way to Eagle Bluff before arriving at Denham to check in at our new home for the next 2 nights.

Today’s adventure is truly unique. We will enjoy a full day marine Safari exploring Steep Point (the most westerly point of Australia), the magnificent Zuytdorp Cliffs and the historic Dirk Hartog Island. Snorkel in pristine World Heritage listed waters. See dolphins, dugongs, sharks, rays, turtles and whales (Jul-Oct).

All the snorkelling equipment will be provided, all you need to bring is a towel, swimmers, sun protection and your sense of adventure.

This morning we have a morning date with the dolphins at Monkey Mia! One of Western Australia’s much loved experiences, see the resident bottlenose up close and personal.

After lunch today, we begin our journey back to Perth and overnight in Geraldton.

Today, we continue our journey south and arrive in Perth in the afternoon. On arrival, check in to your hotel for your final evening in WA. Enjoy the evening at leisure.

Today your Kalbarri and Coral Coast adventure comes to an end. At the appropriate time, make your own way to the airport for your onward flight.
