A few beach shacks at Berry's beach. Cool spot but decided to push on and headed to Waychinicup Inlet for the night. Awsome little spot with big granite boulders. . .

Went for a swim then the heavens opened again after being a cloudless morning at sun up. . .
Thought we'd take the back way on an un sealed road marked as Hassell Beach Road on Hema. Turned off and quickly became apparant was far from a road but turned into a wicked little 4WD track that recieved bugger all traffic. Track was supposed to head north back upto highway but hit private property, followed a track down to the coast then headed eat along the beach and finally made our way out about 30k of some of the softest sand I'd been on.

Was worth it tho spotted a massive pod of dolphins just off the beach having a play. .

Headed into Bremmer Bay as it was nearing the end of the day and luckily the mouth of the Inlet was closed so could cross into Fitzgerald NP. . . Was a very welcome sight to find a cosy fishing shack after a wet cold day and ominous clouds rolling in . .

Next day planned to join up with a track on the other side of the Inlet and as the mouth was closed drove over to pick up the track on the other side. Anyway track didn't present itself and beginning to learn is always an adventure following Hema. . .

One even had a pod of dolphins playing with it ! !
Anyways kept heading east and popped out near point Anne in Fitzgerald NP. Drove north then along highway for a bit then came back into the park at the east end down Hamersley drive which was about 60K of massive corrugations, start to know when your on a parks road over here now . . . Popped out the other end onto bitumen then went to camp at Hamersley Inlet. Didn't like the look of the camp ground was very official but found a very nice little one marked as a bush camp on Hema not sign posted on the right a few K before the main camp, even had a dunny & table. . .

Hi @Rossco the attachments on Post 59 and 63 don't display for me, either on the iPad or PC. Not sure if anyone else has the same issues.

Had tea and enjoyed the open fire at the Condingup Tavern then camped at the footy oval across the road. Stopped in here years ago after driving through from Baledonia in a HQ Holden with a mate and remember it being a cool spot, is always good to revisit places as you remember them. . . Should be a bit better in the GQ was a bit foolhardy in the younger days but we made it and was fun ! . . .

Rossco, I love that you have been finding the road less travelled all along. What comes through from your posts is your genuine appreciation for what you see & experience. We are a bit delayed getting away & your posts have been great to see, & kept my spirits up. Thanks. We are hoping to get away next week if we can get a couple of health issues sorted.
