We depart Adelaide for the Flinders Ranges, and from there we stay overnight in an updated Shearers quarters..As we travel west we take in spectacular scenery- rugged coastline - giant eucalypts and spot native animals along the way.....

Day 1
Our adventure begins north from Adelaide. Depending on the weather conditions we include a bush walk in the southern Flinders Ranges. We stop off along the way to take in typical rural cities and towns. At the end of the first day's journey we stay either in a bush camping setting or during winter an Aussie farm retreat staying in updated shearer's quarters.

Day 2
After a short drive we board the MV Investigator for a 4-5 hr cruise (own cost at $120.00 incls GST). It's a relaxing day viewing and swimming with dolphins and Australian sea lions. Time permitting we head back to Coodlie Park Farm Retreat to view a spectacular sun set at a secluded beach. Our hosts Hassie, Jo and family then conduct a nocturnal spotlighting tour looking for Australia's National Emblems – Kangaroos, Wombats and Emus.

Day 3
We travel further along the West coast of South Australia, and after a learn to surf lesson we do a stop at Ceduna Indigenous Arts and Culture Centre before we check out the surf at one of Australia's best surf beaches "Cactus Beach'. You can do a coastal walk along some rugged coastline or relax with a book on a remote beach. Later in the afternoon we head for the tiny historical settlement of Fowlers Bay, adjacent to massive sand dunes. We finish off the day with some extreme fun sand boarding.

Day 4
Leaving Fowlers Bay behind we cross the dingo fence, travel through Yalata Aboriginal lands and drive onto the Nullarbor Plain. In season [June – October] the Southern Right Whales migrate to the Head of the Bight. Up to 100 of these amazing mammals can be seen from the scenic lookouts. Outside of the whale season you will not be disappointed with the spectacular coastline and viewing platforms that showcase the majestic Nullarbor Cliffs. We stop at the famous wombat/camel/kangaroo road sign and call into old Eucla, a telegraph town buried by sand dunes!

Day 5
We travel through some real outback country and it will certainly give you a sense of the size of the vast and ancient land.

Day 6
We arrive in Esperence (our first bit of civilization for some time) and while we restock supplies you can look around this beautiful seaside port. We set up camp for the next two nights only metres away from a picture postcard beach in the cape le Grand National Park, and the sandy beaches and crystal clear water. A late afternoon hike up the granite formation known as "Frenchman Peak' rewards you with fantastic views of the bays and islands of the Recherche Archipelago.

Day 7
We have another full day to enjoy this beautiful spot and it's totally up to you how you want to spend your day. There are some stunning coastal walks, you may like to swim, boogie board, snorkel, fish or just relax while lying on a pure white sandy beach (you might have to share the beach with a local kangaroo or two).

Day 8
We leave early and head for the Fitzgerald River National Park, where we will do one of the many walks on offer. We like to keep today flexible as there are so many great spots to visit, the guide will decide the best route on the day. We arrive into our overnight destination at Porongurup and if time permits we sample some award winning wines.

Day 9
The landscape changes dramatically as we head into the heart of the southern Eucalypt forests of W.A. We visit Albany, Frenchmans Bay, the Gap Natural Bridge and Greens Pool. Walk the talk on the tree top walk at the "Valley of the Giants"; a unique structure that takes you up into the canopy of a very ancient and special eucalypts called Red Tingle trees. In the afternoon we climb one of the giant Karri trees that once used as a fire lookout.

Day 10
Travel through Augusta, Margaret River and visit WA's famous surf break, visit some unique cave formations and into Busselton. The last bit of the nearly 4000 km journey gives you a chance to reflect on the experiences over the last ten action packed days as we head for Western Australia's capital Perth.
