WA-Exmouth

While in the area we stayed in two caravan parks.
The first was the Lighthouse Caravan Park, about 21klms north of Exmouth. It is at the foot of the Vlamingh Lighthouse and across the road from the beach. A great beach for walking and fishing but not swimming. Too many rocks.

Emus wander through the park during the day.

The second park we stayed at was Yardie Homestead Caravan Park, formerly a sheep station.
This park is the closest one to the National Park and the reef and basic. The power is run by generators so you cannot use anything with a heating element or your air conditioning. The newer amenities are serviceable but the older ones are very average. A few patches of grass but mostly crushed shell base and red dirt with some trees for shade.
The swimming pool is beautiful and they have take away meals at night. We had a whole chicken, potatoes, peas and gravy for $20.00. It was delicious.
