BY ROAD

If you're travelling from the south to Coral Bay along the North West Coastal Highway, turn just turn right at the T-junction in Carnarvon, of Robinson Street and North West Coastal Highway, opposite Caltex and head north towards Coral Bay. If you wish to stay a while in Carnarvon before heading north, you can find out more information on Carnarvon. 

Before setting off on your adventure it is important to check road conditions. Rainfall in the area can close the roads. Main Roads can provide information on major roads and highways, call 138 138 for current and updated information. For local road conditions and coastal stations, it is important to contact the stations directly or the Visitor Centre on (08) 9941 1146.

Don’t forget to look out for animals – you could encounter sheep, kangaroos, goats, cows, horses wandering across the road. Make sure you travel with plenty of water, food supplies and fuel so that should you have a break-down, you are self-sufficient until help arrives. Limited services are available at station shops, so your only closest destination for supplies is your return back to Carnarvon. Finally make sure your vehicle is ready for the trip including spare tyres and any necessarily items for your off-road adventure.
