Hi. My brother is currently near
Exmouth at a place I think is called Mesa. You have to line up at a
gate early morning and wait for someone to leave,first in best dressed. He has been there three weeks and said up until last week that the fish were not biting all that
well but still a great place to
camp. Bob.

Hi Turbo, Whilst I am not too familiar with
Exmouth camping options, I have done a few trips to the
Shark Bay region. IMO,
Monkey Mia itself is over priced and over rated,
Denham is a nice place and maybe considered the poor cousin of
Monkey Mia although I would stay in
Denham again long before
Monkey Mia.
Nanga station on the way too
Denham has a caravan park which is basically on the waters edge, looked ok when I went fishing there but I didnt stay there. North of
Denham is Cape
Peron, I did a day trip there and always thought I would go back there camping one day. But the pick for me from a purley isolation (4WD Only), fishing and relaxation point of view would be
Steep Point either at the point itself or in one of the bays leeding to the point. Better fishing also as the whole of
Shark Bay has more stringent fishing rules (Pink Snapper point of view) than
Steep Point. Basically a a imaginary line from Rangers Staion accross to Dirk Hartog island - Ocean Side rules are different to Bay side.
Cheers
