After visiting the coast, the journey continues inland into the majestic Boranup Karri Forest, one of the most breathtaking forest landscapes in Western Australia. Drive through a peaceful corridor of towering karri trees, some reaching over 60 metres high, forming a natural cathedral of light and shadow. Sunlight filters through the high canopy, creating a magical atmosphere that feels both serene and awe-inspiring. Take a short walk among these ancient giants, breathe in the fresh forest air, and enjoy a quiet moment surrounded by nature. This stop offers a perfect contrast to the rugged coastline, showcasing the rich diversity of the Margaret River region.
Continue the journey south to the stunning Hamelin Bay, famous for its crystal-clear turquoise waters and friendly wild stingrays that often glide gracefully along the shoreline.(This is seasonal and only reaches here from December to Jun.)
