Ningaloo Reef Adventure

Just about every West Australian has heard of Ningaloo, but surprisingly, its an oddity to most other Australians. Located between Exmouth and Coral Bay about 1200km north of Perth,

Hi,

We will be heading this way in about a months time, just wondering if anyone has done this trek with a camper tralier in tow? We have a heavy duty off road cavalier. Will we make it through. Also how strict are the station owners on eco loos? We don't have one yet but is this pretty common and do we need to invest in one?

Cheers
Nik

Nick,

you dont say what you are using to pull your camper but i don't expect you would have any problems - it is fairly easy going.
Portable toilets can be hired from Ningaloo Station.

Sorry Leachy,

92 GQ Patrol 4.2D. We will be doing it as part of our trip around OZ so I wonder how many other places have a loo condition on their property.

Nik,

The loo thing is becomming more of an issue all the time but most places that have the requirement generally have a hire option however I would suggest that you contact Phil before you go to ensure they have enough units available and put your name on one. Else go spend the bucks and get one that will fit somewhere in the camper, you will actually find that you will start using it a lot and prefer it over van park loos or even going out in the middle of the night in the dark to do your business.

Yes, we've towed an offroad cavalier along most of Ningaloo coast without trouble [behind a 110 defender]. You shouldn't have any problem [weather permitting]. Station owners have asked for but not checked our eco/porta loo. IMHO best to carry one if space allows as some sites can get crowded making bush loos hard to find.Cape Range NP has toilets at most camp sites so no need for eco/porta loo in the National Park. Enjoy the trip.
