Haha, YES! 😂 So campers, which one are you? The driver or the passenger? 🚐🙌

Winter is also all about cosying up by a campfire, toasting marshmallows and waking up to cool, crisp mornings with a mug of hot coffee warming our hands. 🔥⛺️☕️

Chasing golden hour? 🌄 Thanks @tourist_thebus for these tips for where to see epic sunrises and sunsets around #Esperance.
Sunrise:
📍 11 Mile Lagoon
11 Mile is usually super quiet as it’s further away from town, so you’ll likely have the place to yourself 🙌🏽
📍 Frenchman Peak
The climb to the top takes about 20 minutes, so be sure to leave enough time to wander around and decide where you want to watch it from. 🥾
Sunset:
📍 Wylie Bay Dunes
Accessible by a 20-30 min walk if you don't have a 4WD (worth the walk they say!). Head there at least 1.5 hours before sunset to have plenty of time. 🚶♀️
📍 Wharton Beach
2WD friendly if the sand isn’t too churned up. Climb the rock for an epic view. Don't forget recovery gear (just in case!) 🚘️

Now tell us who doesn't love a secluded beach with crystal clear waters... 🌊💙💦
📍 Boat Harbour Beach is a small protected bay located 35 km west of #Denmark, midway between #Parry Beach and #Peaceful Bay in #australiassouthwest. Accessible by 4WD only, it's the perfect spot for an off-road adventure, a quick dip in clear waters and for a spot of fishing.
Note there's no camping on Boat Harbour Beach so if you're looking for somewhere to stay in the area visit https://caravanwa.com.au/

Here’s a little cuteness to kick off your weekend: a golden ghost crab found at Dirk Hartog Island. Unique to WA, these little guys are known for their bright yellow colour. 💛

Who's up around the Gibb in #AustraliasNorthWest this week? Check out this advice below from @thefamilyfind after their trip on the #GibbRiverRoad a couple of days ago post-rain. 🌧️
"When they say drive to the conditions, they mean it. The roads going to be very churned up, wet and muddy. If you’re on the Gibb or planning to start it over the next week, take it easy!"

The pretty pink of #HuttLagoon. 🌸
"Make sure you pop your drone up to see the lakes colours from the sky as they are much brighter from above." - thanks for the tip @houseofmorton
📍 Hutt Lagoon is a marine salt lake located in Port Gregory, 1 hours' drive north of Geraldton or 40 minutes south of Kalbarri in #AustraliasCoralCoast.

All the miracles of #PurnululuNationalPark captured by @offroadfaminavan in #AustraliasNorthWest. ✨️
Featuring the iconic Bungle Bungles and the breathtaking Echidna Chasm, a 2km return walk with gorge walls reaching up to 200m high and narrowing to just a metre wide in places. Incredible. 🤎
📝 Traveller Tip: Visit Echidna Chasm just before midday to catch the stunning golden hues as the sunlight illuminates the walls. 🤩

It's not just about the dolphins at Monkey Mia... how about the emus? 🧡
Here are a couple of fun facts for you:
- emus are speedsters, reaching up to 48 km/h! 💨
- they are also one of only two Australian animals that can't move backwards (the other being the kangaroo in case you're wondering!) 🦘
📽️ Love this @george.soan ✨️
Anyone else love going off-road? 🚙💨
Check out that mud splash... @wanderingwarrys, we’re curious—how did the van look on arrival at camp?! 🧽🧼💦
We are always up for an adventure @sundaynomads And 11 Mile Beach in #Esperance looks like just the place for a good one! 🙌
Pro tip from @nomads_roam_ for keeping the family caravan clean.🚐✨
"1. Gather up every little piece of Lego, magnets, pencils ..
2. Throw it outside
3. Put a fence around it so no one can see your 💩."
Brilliant. Keeps all the toys in one place too! 🙌
