Esperance to Quagi Beach

Day 39 - Esperance to Quagi Beach

Castletown, Esperance

Tuesday, 26 February 2013
Was going to go to Cape Le Grand National Park but was told they are very strict about pets coming into the Park even if left in the vehicle. Instead I decided to head west.

Arrived at Quagi Beach, about 70km along the highway from Esperance and a 10km along a dirt road. Camp sites are set among banksias andeucalypts so plenty of shade. My camp site also had a small covered structure which provide further shade. Camp sites are all numbered, large and cost $2 per person per night.

Set up camp and talked to another camper who I think been here for weeks. Tuka and I walked down to the beach. He had a swim. Small beach with white sand and small surf.

Met a couple (Paul and Terri ) that arrived with their bus, small 4wd and boat. They are on their way east. They are from Thirroul and have been on the road since may 2012. Also met a guy who is a birdwatcher. He told me about a number of species that he has observed (Western Wattle Birds, New Holland Honeyeaters and Silvereyes).

Walked by myself around the headland. Had a swim on the way back to camp.
