MARGARET RIVER BEACHES WESTERN AUSTRALIA

 FROM YALLINGUP TO GNARABUP

The Beaches of the Margaret River Region

It seemed liked yesterday but it has been ten months, ten months of confinement in Plague City (Melbourne) since the visit to the beaches of the Margaret River, now so close and  yet so far and not achievable now or what appears anytime soon.This is a fond look back to the trip from Yallingup to Gnarabup, with visits to the various beaches along the way and of course an occasional visit to the wineries dotted throughout the region.

YALLINGUP
Yallingup (which means 'place of caves', 256 KM south of Perth and 25 KM from Dunsborough is a cute little town on the side of a hill with a number of very pretty beaches






INJIDUP

Injidup is just south of Yallingup and here you will find the "Canal Rocks" and 'Natural Spar'' amid a rocky outcrop. Just walk down from the car park to some of the prettiest scenery along the coast. The spar is a rock enclosed area  on the shore-line where fuming sea water slips in and out



















MOSES ROCK

A liitle further south head down Moses Rock Road to Moses Rock Beach where you will find a rocky beautiful shoreline 






GRACETOWN & COWARAMUP BAY

Further south is the small village of Gracetown some 269 KM from Perth , known for its beaches and surf.








GNARABUP & THE RIVER MOUTH

Here you will find one of the longest beaches on th coast and the outlet of the Margaret River into the Indian Ocean.
