ESPERANCE | WET & WINDY BUT ITS STILL AMAZING

We journey across inland southern WA in an effort to cover some ground and start making our way across to the east coast. From Margaret River we travel through some beautiful country including many small outback towns and farmland to arrive at Esperance only to be greeted by wild, wet and windy weather. This is the reality of travel and how to make the best of it, from witnessing the awesome landscapes with the dark moody clouds above to visiting Lucky Bay Brewery and meeting more new friends on the road, we loved every minute at Esperance and will be back again!

Lucky Bay is totally different in sunny beautiful weather. You must go back because at it's best is one of the best beaches in Australia

Noooooo, I don't want your trip to end. You guys quickly have become one of my fav families. Great footage, shame about the weather.

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Thanks mate. Don’t worry the trip might be ending but the journey is only beginning 🤙🏼

[@johnbode954]

You bring back good memories I agree 100% about national parks like I said should be first in first serve😊👍

Great blog again. South WA looks like a blast to see and we plan on doing so next year. Enjoy your trip home and keep some blogs happening. 👍

[@toddpattison3551]

Thanks for the reply mate, Im seriously thinking going the same way. Just waiting for my 79 to turn up. March fingers crossed. Look forward to your coming eps about them. Safe travels

If you are still in Esperance, hit the coffee shop DownTown in the centre of town opposite the IGA. Well worth it for superb coffee

Oh no not home my holiday is ending now going to miss your vid’s

[@fleurneumann8430]

The “up” in WA towns ending in “up” like Kojonup , Jerramungup etc means place of water . We completely understand your gripe re empty sites being “booked” , Dept of Biodiversity , Conservation and Attractions ( which seems to change its name often ) is so inefficient we get very frustrated . That jetty in Esperance is a recent rebuild of the very old wooden Tanker Jetty costing $7,000,000. Not very long since reopened . We realise on are now on a time frame but best months for the south coast is Jan to April ,. Safe travels across the Nullarbor .

We were there recently those kids body boards we left in the swap box for other kids...

[@craigtomkinson2837]

Cool Ep,

[@marissamarsden5054]

Just stumbled across your vid as I'm from Esperance. It's always cold there but when the sun is out it's the most beautiful place. I plan on watching some of your previous vlogs now😊 safe travels

[@AshleyPearceImages]

Sadly you guys have gone through the sound end of WA really quickly. You’ve missed some highlights here in the SW & Great Southern. Hopefully you can get back over to WA soon

[@toddpattison3551]

Love your videos guys. Noticed you are running the DCS under bonnet dual battery set up. How do you rate them. Do you run an inverter off this system too.

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Hi Todd. Yes we have had dcs under bonnet in the cruiser and in our last vehicle and really rate them mate, we haven’t run an inverter of them. But they would handle it it would just be the cable length that would be the problem. We will be doing a lot more about the dcs batteries in coming eps

[@roddaley7311]

hi
we have an aussie swag camper and hope to travel down that way next year, these weather conditions are not giving me much hope of a comfortable trip. did you see many people travelling in campers? and how did they cope?
cheers

[@SmartTouringSystems]

Hi Rod. Won’t lie at times it would have been a bit painful with a camper. But we are getting soft now with the caravan, don’t worry about it just go mate. You always remember the harder ones more.
