Dongara


Tuesday, 24 August

Another cold, dreary morning as we packed up for the 75 km drive south to Dongara. It really meant we had to go slow this morning, so as not to arrive too early. Shortly after leaving Geraldton, the road followed the coastline, with sandhills to the west of the road and farmland the whole way – green grass, sheep, cows, wheat and canola. We quickly gathered that this region is generally a bit breezy, as most of the trees, and the grass, were growing at an angle of 45 degrees or even parallel to the ground.

We are staying at the Big 4 Dongara Denison Holiday Park, which is a small park located right on the beach – a really nice little area. The amenities block is the best we have come across this year, which makes a nice change to some we have seen. Apart from a drive around town, which didn’t take very long, the remainder of the day has been spent enjoying the sunshine, which appeared not long after leaving Geraldton.
