Our favourite spots in Esperance, Western Australia

Our favourite spots in Esperance, Western Australia

Blue Haven Bay

We spent the morning driving along the coast looking at all the beaches that the townsite had to offer and this was one of our favourite spots! We parked ourselves up on a rock and soaked in all the goodness that this little beach had to offer. On our way out, we met one of the locals and his two dogs who go to Blue Haven everyday for their morning walk, how lucky are they!!

Lucky Bay

Next up, the iconic Lucky Bay – this is probably the place you think of when you hear about Esperance. This beach is pretty picture perfect and the photos don’t really do it justice. As you drive in over the little hill you get a glimpse of the bright blue water and it blows you away. The beach was rock-hard and there were even people with old school cars down on the beach, along with vans and other “non-4wd” vehicles. We took some footage of the old cars and put it into our Esperance YouTube video if you don’t believe us!! You’ll also see where the “squeaky white sand” saying comes from… the sand literally squeaks as you walk/drive on it! It is bizarre! If you are lucky (like us) you’ll also see the cute little kangaroos.

 

Frenchman’s Peak

Frenchman’s Peak is located in Cape Le Grand National Park, and my gosh, it is sooo worth the climb! The views from the top were mind-blowing. It actually only took us about and hour (maybe less) to get to the top! We went around sunset and as you can see it was incredible. We highly recommend doing this walk and don’t be disheartened when you drive by it, it looks HUGE when you first see it!

Cape Le Grand Beach

We parked up here for most of one of our days. Keelan spent his time surfing, while Sarah was on “Shark watch”, no just kidding! but seriously…

Sarah walked up the top of the rock-face that is to the left when you first drive onto Cape Le Grand Beach. The views were amazing! As you can see in the photo.

We definitely want to try book Lucky Bay or Cape Le Grand campsites through DPAW next time we are in Esperance. They looked epic!!

Watch our time in Esperance here, and as always, thanks for your support!
