Blessed be the remoteness! It acts as a limiter on who gets to DHI and stops it from losing its appeal for me. I'm constantly amazed at how much rubbish is washed up on west coast remote beaches. The threat of micro plastics is really a problem for the world's oceans. Great episode thanks.

Yes I agree the limited numbers is a great idea and something I think could be incorporated into other parts of Aus. It’s a bit disheartening seeing the rubbish and just how much there is

You can buy diesel there - just pay top dollar but hey you are remote. Last trip we did there, friend blew two tires, had to come from Geraldton to Denham and then over. Cost him $3k 😬 Amazing place to do with group of friends - we love it.

What drone are you flying guys, and are you using a polarized filter for the footage over the water? Amazing scenery, and so well presented.

@OverlandTravellers 9 ай бұрын

Either a mavic 3 classic or a mini 3 pro and not using any polarizing filters or nds, they’re on the list though

Looks amazing you guys always photograph places so well. Am heading there in April next year. Delicate question but I guess you need to be 'fully' self contained with limited to no toilet facilities?

Worth noting that the DPAW sites need to be booked, so you can’t just camp anywhere willy nilly as you may be in a spot that someone has paid for the privilege of having the spot to themselves. Best to do your research and book the camps you want 👍
