Escape to a the southern coastal town of Hopetoun, where the dramatic untouched coastline and magnificent Fitzgerald River National Park invite you to trek, swim, fish and explore one of the most bio-diverse landscapes in the world. Nestled on the shores of pretty Mary Ann Haven, three hours and 45 minutes east of Albany, Hopetoun is seven hours by road from Perth, making it the ideal place to stop on a south coast road trip from Albany to Esperance. Just nine kilometres from town, the 329,000 hectare Fitzgerald River National Park opens up before you.

Explore this spectacular landscape in a four wheel drive, canoeing on the river or walking the many trails. In addition to 20 per cent of Western Australia's plant species, you'll find the park's shores and estuaries abound with bird life. During the winter months, you can also spot southern right whales as they come into secluded bays to calve - one of only three places in Australia where this occurs.

Spend a lazy afternoon on Barrens Beach, swimming, snorkelling and exploring the rock pools. Visit the blow holes and cave at East Mylies.

The secluded beaches of Hopetoun on Western Australia’s far south coast are among the most pristine and untouched in the country. Here, it’s easy to find an entire stretch of coastline all to yourself for swimming, snorkelling and lazing on the sand. Isolated coves offer beachside picnicking, camping, bushwalking, fishing and surfing. The surf is often up at Starvation Bay and Powell Point near the eastern end of Hopetoun and these spots are also good for swimming. You’ll also find boat ramps, camping facilities, barbecues and toilets. Munglinup Beach and Mason Bay are popular for swimming, while a reef about 13 kilometres offshore from beautiful Twelve Mile Beach makes for excellent boat fishing. Take one of the walk trails near West Beach and Four Mile Beach and you might spot humpback whales migrating off the coast. The fishing here is top class and there are good barbecue facilities. Continue west to Fitzgerald River National Park for more isolated beaches just waiting to be discovered. Hopetoun is about a six hour drive from Perth....
