For those heading to Broome in 8 days, we suggest staying in Coral Bay today so you can go on one of the many day charters out to the Ningaloo Reef

Fifth Day
There will be a fair amount of driving to get under our belt today, so we head out of Coral Bay early, stopping along the way for morning tea. It's back on the road driving through cattle country, eating lunch by the Ashburton River before the scenic drive (in outback terms ļ) into the beautiful Karijini National Park for our overnight stay at our permanent Savannah campsite. We'll take a look at Oxers Lookout and Joffre Falls if time permits.
Overnight: Karijini Eco Retreat (Safari Tents ¡V dorms only)
Sixth Day
We'll take a look out over Circular Pool from the top of Dales Gorge before taking the fantastic walk down to the pool for a morning swim. Then take the stunning hike through Dales Gorge to Fortescue Falls before a well deserved & refreshing swim at the gorgeous leafy rock pool behind - Fern Pool (remember to pack your lunch).
After walking out of Dales Gorge we then take a short drive to Joffre Falls for some leisure time. You won't believe you are in the outback!
Overnight: Karijini Eco Retreat (Safari Tents)
Seventh Day
Start off the day with a walk down to Weano Gorge amphitheatre. For those fit and adventurous we then can go onto Handrail Pool (passenger participation is at the tour driver's discretion) - an excellent level of fitness required. For those wanting the leisurely option, you can chill out around the amphitheatre.
We depart Karijini National Park by late morning and head towards Port Hedland on our way to Pardoo Cattle Station.
Overnight: Pardoo Cattle Station
Eighth Day
See 80 Mile Beach on our way to Broome - miles of white sandy beach either way you look! Watch out for the dolphins that may be playing just off shore!
