After I sold my car in Perth I hired an SUV to do a last little road trip in Western Australia before coming back to France. For each part find the link to my post with more info and more photos of my road trip in Western Australia! Itinerary For these 12 (much too small) days of road trip, here is my itinerary: Day 1 : Perth Day 2 : Jurien bay (and the sea lions) Day 3 : Kalbarri…
After Coral bay my last stop and not the least: Karijini National Park. I admit that it’s specifically for this national park that I did this road trip, I did not want to leave without having gone there! And I was not disappointed 😉 . Practical information You should know that this Karijini park cannot be discovered in summer. The region is too humid and the heavy rains make access to the gorges dangerous. Water can rise there very quickly.…
After my visit to Kalbarri I continued on the road to the North in the Gascony region. Trip rather turned towards the beach and the sea 😎 . Shark bay First step in the Gascony: Shark bay! And no you are not going to be eaten by a shark here;). On the other hand there are rare species that come here like the dugong. Hamelin pool I spent the night in a campsite near Hamelin pool. This allowed me to…
The second stop on my road trip was Kalbarri National Park in the Mid-West! Which is already almost 600km from Perth. But first, a stop at Hutt lagoon to see the pink lake 🙂 (probably more pink and impressive during less dry period). Coast side The first day I rather visited the coast of the Kalbarri region! I also took the opportunity to buy myself a fly net to protect my head during the next few days, essential during this…
After selling my car, spent the day at Rottnest island and booked my flight back to France I rented a car for one last little tour! My first stop was Jurien Bay in the wheatbelt. I had booked a trip to go swimming with the sea lions! I just stopped to take a quick pic of the pinnacles (no time for more unfortunately). Practical informations Two companies have the right to offer these tours. I have chosen Turquoise Safari ($…
During the 2019 Christmas holidays I had not really planned to leave Paris. But at the last moment I wanted to get some fresh air and see the sea! After some research for accommodation I opted for Houlgate on the “flowered” coast. Practical information The flowered coast is located in Calvados, between Cabourg and Honfleur. I opted for the hotel Castel de Siam in the city center of Houlgate with the possibility of free parking in the street. And the…
At the end of 2019 I was looking for a French destination for a weekend. My criteria were: quickly accessible by train from Paris, not too expensive and nice, authentic city center. I chose Troyes! Practical information So I took the TER train from the Gare de l’Est. Troyes is reached in 1h30 and the round trip cost me 60E. I booked a small studio Arouet very close to the station and close to the center (102E for 3 nights).…
Perth was my last base in Australia. I spent a few days there to sell my car and then 3 days after my last road trip. Useful information Perth is the capital of Western Australia. It’s a big city lost all by itself on the west coast of Australia. Just like for Melbourne I had the opportunity to test few hostels, but also camps! Knowing that I rather stayed in Fremantle when I had a car (you can park for…
Once my car was sold (and a little budget more), my first visit was Rottnest island! I dreamed of these little quokka 😉 . Access to the island The boats that reach Rottnest Island leave from Fremantle. So I could go there on foot but know that you can book a transfer via the companies. You can also book a bike via the chosen ferry company (I took Rottnest express but they are equivalent). Do not forget to look on…
Just like in Melbourne,I had the opportunity to stay in several hostels and test a few camps around! Indeed Perth was my departure city but before that I spent about 10 days there to sell my car! Camps I have stayed in two camps around Perth before staying in hostel. One in town, not too far from the airport (queen’s grove). It was fairly concrete and exposed to road noise. I stayed there for two nights, wanted to extend but…
