Up North, Episode 5 - Kalbarri

Our journey up north has now taken a southward direction (towards Perth). After leaving Shark Bay we ventured to Kalbarri National Park and spent a night there. There was much to see in Kalbarri. In this post I will present photos of our lodging, its surroundings and a very pleasant beach nearby.

We stayed at this place called Pelican's Nest. Our unit was a small house on its own, complete with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a lounge and a kitchen. It could house all 7 of us comfortably although 5 of us had to squeeze into a room (that room was supposed to be the kids' bedroom I think). 

Reception, with a very friendly dog.

Our 'house'.

5 of us into this room, but wasn't uncomfortable.

Lounge area and kitchen at the far end.

A short drive from our accommodation took us to a beach with very violent waves. We stood there for 15 minutes just watching the waves crash on the shore. It was a magnificent sight. Surfers would be happy to hop on those waves, although I personally feel challenging such rough waters means to suicide.

The beach.

The following is a series of photos that demonstrate how violent the waves were. I wouldn't want to be caught in such waters by any chance!


 


That's all for now. The next few posts will be about the attractions we visited while staying in the national park.
