The Warlu Way includes several of Western Australia's most breathtaking national parks and Karijini is considered the jewel in the Pilbara crown. Featuring soaring desert ranges, dramatic ancient gorges and lush tropical-like oases, Karijini National Park would be worth the trip alone. Add Millstream Chichester to your itinerary and there are days of outback wonderment guaranteed. 

STAY AT DISCOVERY PARKS - PILBARA KARRATHA

"All we can say is WOW! Karijini is one of those National Parks that has it all. Beauty, adventure, history and tranquility. Don't miss Hammersly, Hancock and Dales Gorges. Each offers something different but all are a must-see. What an amazing place." - @4boysandacaravan

The Warlu Way also includes a coastal route, which is definitely not to be skipped. Before you even hop in the car, Ningaloo Reef at Exmouth will have you swimming with sea turtles, while just up the road at Onslow, a private boat can get you in waters surrounding the abundant Mackerel Islands or Barrow Island, a protected marine park with hundreds of coral reefs you can snorkel.

STAY AT DISCOVERY PARKS - ONSLOW

"Onslow is a pretty little town built on the back of sheep and cattle farming, pearl farming and gold-mining. Don't forget to try your luck fishing at Four Mile Creek or give mud-crabbing a go at Five Mile or Three Mile Pools." - @4boysandacaravan

From Onslow to Karratha, a spectacular array of marine features await. These include the Dampier Archipelago, a stunning group of islands you can visit in the fluorescent blue waters of the Indian Ocean. Following this, it’s worth catching your breath on the stunning red cliffs of Port Hedland, then travel inland to discover ancient rock formations at a town called Marble Bar. 

STAY AT DISCOVERY PARKS - PORT HEDLAND

"Port Hedland is a fascinating town where you really get a sense of how big the mining industry is in Australia. The Discovery Parks - Port Hedland is in a great location and has a really nice pool, so we took some time to relax here." - @4boysandacaravan

After that, it’s all about the beach. From the coastal reserve of Cape Keraudren - itself a popular fishing spot - Eighty Mile Beach is the run home to Broome and is the longest stretch of uninterrupted surf in Western Australia.

STAY AT DISCOVERY PARKS - BROOME

"The Discovery Park - Broome is located right on the beach and next to a water park and beachside cafe which serves the best coffee and food. We couldn't have asked for a better spot." - @4boysandacaravan

Offering 220km of mostly deserted sandscape, Eighty Mile Beach plays home to an incredible variety of marine life and is recognised as a wetland of international importance. If you need more, the marine park here is a major nesting ground for flatback turtles which are native to northern Australia.

If you have the time, the Warlu Way in Western Australia's Pilbara is an 8-10 day trip, and a 4WD is highly recommended. Thanks to travelling family @4boysandacaravan for sharing their adventure with us. We hope to see you on the Warlu Way soon!
