Itinerary – One Day Tour – Lancelin – Moore River Estuary
We meet at 7.50 am to be on the road at 8.00 am in Perth CBD.
We leave the Perth CBD to go to the Yanchep National Park. When we arrive, we enjoy our morning tea in the Chocolate Drops Tearooms, a specialty Chocolate Shop and Tearooms. It is a chocolate ‘haven’ that integrates with the historical and cultural surroundings. They have been creating unique quality handmade chocolates with an authentic Australian focus since 2005
Freshly fortified, we now visit the koala enclosure. Though not native to Western Australia, Yanchep has been home to a colony of koalas since 1938. The koala, incorrectly called koala bear, is a herbivorous marsupial native to Australia. It is the only living member of the Phascolarctidae, and its closest living relatives are the wombats, members of the Vombatidae. One of Australia’s best-known species can be seen among the tree branches from the elevated walkway.
Lancelin, with all the sand, the waves and the sunsets, is the next point of interest. The community of Lancelin on the Turquoise Coast is one of the country’s best-kept holiday secrets. Locals and international tourists quickly love the gleaming white dunes, clean beaches, and a laid-back coastal lifestyle. But be warned: visiting Lancelin is addictive, as are the activities on offer in the area, including sandboarding, dolphin watching and fishing. We will explore it, feel it, watch it.
Now, lunchtime is looming after we have explored the famous dunes. We recover by a sumptuous lunch at the Dunes Restaurant. They cater and offer meals to suit most dietary requirements, Vegan, Vegetarian & Gluten-free and are specialised in great food. We have fantastic views of the ocean and can dine inside or outside
After a beautiful meal, we look for the other attractions Lancelin offers. For instance, the tiny township is notable for its stunning rugged white beaches. The Lancelin Lookout is a great vantage point from which you have a magnificent view of the beach and the sunset. Islands and dunes are also visible from this point. Another significant point is Lancelin Jetty, where we have a nice view of the beach and Lancelin Island.
It is now early afternoon, and we visit Guilderton and the Moore River estuary. Guilderton is a nature-based tourist attraction about 100 km north of Perth, just off Indian Ocean Drive. The town is on the last remaining estuary (Moore River) in the Swan Coastal Plain, untouched by developments. Residents strive to preserve the virtually unchanged environment as much as possible for present and future generations to enjoy. The place invites you to take a beach walk to where the Indian Ocean and the Moore River meet. The Moore Estuary Lookout offers an unsurpassed view of the sea and river.
Pinnaroo Valley Memorial Park, our last stop for the day, is widely considered Australia’s most environmentally responsible final resting place. Since its inception in 1978, the park has been developed and maintained as a natural bushland cemetery, planted with native species only, with flat bronze plaques to mark graves. The natural environment of Pinnaroo provides a haven for many native birds and animals, including kangaroos. In addition, the grounds are a popular attraction for varied outdoor activities like walking and picnicking. So why are we stopping here? It is because of the many kangaroos that can be seen here in the late afternoon.
