Officially the whitest beach in Australia if not the world, it’s washed by turquoise-coloured waters. Such a beautiful place with the best National Park campgrounds we’ve seen, lots of wildflowers and birds so we decided it needed a blog of its own.
Esperance to Perth
Back to Perth via Wave Rock, Tin Horse Highway, Pingrup Silos and the Collie Dam Mural after driving 2,900km in two weeks.
Brisbane to Barraba (May 2021)
We set off to see the silo art in New South Wales and Victoria. The first is at Barraba. To get there we travelled by Warwick, Greenup and Inverell.
Barraba to Dunedoo
Continuing on the NSW Silo Art Trail, passing through small historic towns to see silos at Gunnedah, Merriwa and Dunedoo.
Dunedoo to Rankins Springs
There are 8 painted silos in NSW, all different, all fabulous. We’ve driven 2000km from Brisbane to see them all. Now we continue south to pick up the Victoria Silo Art Trail.
Rankins Springs to Barham
We went to Victoria for the Silo Art Trail and we saw the 9 painted silos in the Wimmera-Mallee region. Further travel in Victoria was cut short by the 7 day lockdown introduced by the Victorian Government in response to a COVID-19 outbreak.
Barham to Eden
After crossing back into NSW to avoid the Victorian COVID lockdown we travelled via Deniliquin, Urana, Wagga Wagga, Yass, Braidwood and Cobargo to reach the coast at Eden.
Eden to Sydney
Following the NSW south coast from Eden to Sydney, eating fresh osters at every opportunity.
Sydney to Brisbane
From Sydney to Brisbane we followed the coast stopping at Forster, the Myall Lakes National Park, Trial Bay Goal, Woolgoolga and Lennox Head.
