Esperance, WA - Maps, Photographs and video

Norseman to Esperance is about 204 Kilometres

Finally realised that the focus on my video camera had jammed and I was not taking any videos! Bought a new video camera here in Esperaance and on looking back over the trip, was glad I did

Esperance, WA - The caravan park

The caravan park was quite large. All the usual facilities were available and we got 10% discount as members of the caravan club. The park was available for cabins, caravans (both sighted and visitors) and camp sites. We would recommend it.

Esperance, WA - The journey.

After a short drive of 204 Kilometres, we arrived at Esperance in the rain. Once the caravan was unhitched we took a quick look around Esperance town. The road from Norseman to Esperance was very much like most of the other roads we have driven - Long and straight. Very little traffic encountered, mostly road trains.
