About this tour
Self-drive along Western Australia's Turquoise Coast from Perth to Nambung National Park, taking in shipwrecks, coastal stretches, and the otherworldly Pinnacles rock formations over 6–9 hours. Your phone becomes a guide: Riley's audio commentary and turn-by-turn navigation let you linger where it grabs you, skip ahead if it doesn't, and chase the light across turquoise water and limestone. The route itself is the point—not a tick-box race to the end.
Highlights
- Alkimos shipwreck, Western Australia's most photographed maritime ruin
- Indian Ocean Drive hugs the coastline with pull-over spots
- Pinnacles limestone formations rise surreal from yellow sand
- Pause at hidden detours and wide open spaces at will
- Audio narration unlocks history and local anecdotes per location
- Navigate using your own device, no extra hardware needed
What to expect
You'll pick your own speed and stops. The app feeds you navigation, audio context, and photo spots as you roll north—no rigid schedule, no group wait times. The Alkimos alone rewards 20 minutes; some travellers skip it. Indian Ocean Drive clips along; others spend hours beachcombing. The Pinnacles are surreal, best lit in early morning or late afternoon. Expect a solid half-day minimum if you're lingering; push it to a full day if you're curious. You'll need your own car, a charged phone, and $15 per vehicle to enter the national parks.
Good to know
Bring a mobile charger—the app runs on-demand. National Park fees ($15 AUD) aren't included. Service animals welcome. No minimum fitness level. Allow extra time if light and weather tempt you off-schedule; that's the whole point.
