Western Australia - The perfect road trip for nature and wildlife lovers: We’re Doris & Matthias from Bugs & Bears, and we just travelled from Perth to Exmouth, Broome and all the way up to Darwin looking for wildlife and adventure. After a stunning road trip we’ve selected our personal 5 Best National Parks of Western Australia. This short travel guide should help you plan your trip through these beautiful landscapes.
Which National Parks should I visit? What are the highlights of Western Australia? Where can I go diving in WA? Where can I find Koalas on the west coast? Where can I get close encounters with dolphins in Australia? Where is the best spot to find fresh water crocodiles? Is Karijini worth it? Where are the best off road tracks?
The guide in this first episode of Wild Travel Tuesday covers it all. Here are our favourite picks:
5️⃣ Yanchep National Park right up North from Perth
4️⃣ Tunnel Creek & Windjana National Park in the Kimberley Region
3️⃣ Cape Range National Park & Ningaloo Reef on the Ningaloo Coast
2️⃣ Karijini National Park in the Pilbara Region
1️⃣ Francois Peron National Park & Monkey Mia in Shark Bay
*️⃣ Kalbarri National Park on the Coral Coast
*️⃣ Nambung National Park with its Pinnacles
We hope you enjoyed the first episode of Wild Travel Tuesday, our new weekly series on wildlife experiences, adventure gear and travel life. We'd love to hear your feedback in the comments section.
