Welcome to the mining hub of Western Australia, Dampier ๐ด๐ด
Who knew a town known for its hustle and bustle of mining could look this good
The Dampier foreshore is the perfect little oasis for families to relax and watch the kids enjoy the great playgrounds and safe beaches

Now thatโs a rock pool ๐คฉ๐
Gantheaume Point ๐
Unlike most rock pools, this one fills up from the bottom which means itโs only full on a very high tide, this picture was taken on a 10.2m tide. When we arrived it was PACKED but to our delight 10 mins later evervone left for lunch so we had this gem to ourselves.
To find this rock pool -> Park at Gantheaume Point, walk down the footpath for 50 metres, turn right and take the well worn track down to the waters edge.

Check out this epic free camp we had all to ourselves! ๐๐๐ผ
Hidden in the Burrup Peninsula we did the โJump Upโ track which led us to this beautiful little beach cove. We were stoked to ditch the van and unfold the swag for the night. ๐
Put this one on your list!!

Sam the actual king of the castle ๐๐
A bloke named Sam washed up on an island just off Dampier in 1965 on a 44 gallon drum after a bad storm and was stranded for several days before deciding to make the island his own and build himself a castle. He didnโt give up despite the vandals, the heat, a fire and cyclones. Unfortunately He passed away in 2005 and was buried on the island along with his mate Tiger the cat. Today Samโs island is accessible to the public via a tinny and his home and belonging are still in tacked and untouched. Respect to everyone that has visited and left his place the same way you found it ๐๐ฝ
What an absolute legend Sam was ๐
