2024.05 - Peaceful Bay & Conspicous Cliff
Sunsets, whales and warm weather welcome Xander and Leanne back to WA's South Coast
In May 2024, after repairing our equipment in Perth, Leanne and I headed south to Peaceful Bay. With my return to trail building in the Valley of the Giants approaching, we took the opportunity to revisit some favourite places along the South Coast.
Peaceful Bay
We arrived at Peaceful Bay Caravan Park with plenty of time to set up camp. Just a short walk from the beach, the park features lush grassy campsites shaded by peppermint trees, along with a modern shower block and cosy camp kitchen.
With camp established, we wandered down to the beach for sunset. We were surprised and thrilled to discover a controlled burn taking place across the water, adding smoke and fire to an already picturesque evening.
Exploring the Surrounds
The extended summer continued throughout our stay encouraging us to explore the local area by four wheel drive and kayak.
Leanne completed an assignment outside in the sun, and celebrated finishing her uni semester with a top tier milkshake at The Marron Tale.
Conspicuous Cliff
We ended the month of May with a visit to Conspicuous Cliff, a stunning location nearby that never disappoints.
We climbed to the highest lookout to watch the sunset and Leanne quickly spotted some migrating humpback whales.
Hyped up on whale excitement she ran back down the stairs for zoomies on the beach.
Which made her quite thirsty.
Home Again
Between the spectacular sunsets, warm weather and migrating whales, Peaceful Bay was the perfect welcome back to the South West.
