BUCKET LIST: Kayak the Ord River, Kununurra, Western Australia

This was a real adventure, one our kids talk about again and again. And what a way to explore this section of The Kimberley! We booked a two-day, self guided kayaking tour. We packed our food and drink, ice, clothes, camera and sundries – they provided the kayaks, life jackets, tents, waterproof barrels for your gear and eskies. You carry everything you need in your canoes – so pack lightly! Day 1 It was a 6.15am start and an hour’s drive.

FREE Seaside Camp: Membinup Beach, Western Australia

by Overland Exposure Our CAMPS Ambassadors, Dan and Manda said Membinup Beach, WA is 100% WOW! Here’s what they said: 1hr East of Esperance Off-road set-ups only as the road is unpredictable and dirt. The entrance to the beach was tight, but our big rig fit, just! There is a camping area behind the dunes/beach, but only a few large spots and the rest are small. You can camp on the beach itself but be mindful of soft sand. No facilities at all, so fully self contained is required Tides come up really high so think about where you set-up

Camp with AMAZING views at Pender Bay Escape, Western Australia

Pender Bay Escape is Western Australia site 662 in Camps 11 or find it in the Camps Australia Wide App. Located approximately 190km north of Broome, Pender Bay really is an amazing spot to camp. With most sites overlooking Pender Bay, a booking really is a must. The cost is $20 per adult per night and kids are free. There are a couple of toilets and showers but they are a fair distance from a lot of the camp sites. Is there nothing better than watching the sunset while sitting around your own private fire pit?
