Moore River
Just over a 1-hour drive away along the scenic route of Indian Ocean Drive and Brand Highway, Moore River is a beautiful natural town for a day trip or weekend getaway. Moore River is where the river meets the sea so be sure to start your day off with a swim. The quaint town is bustling with family friendly activities such as sand boarding, swimming, canoeing, fishing, exploring the lighthouse and much more, ensuring there is plenty to do for the whole family.

Lancelin
Less than an hour’s drive away from home, Lancelin is an iconic spot to explore the WA coast and soak up the sun, surf and sand dunes. Kids and adults alike will love getting out on the boogie board for some action on the dunes and, if you don’t already own one, you can hire a sandboard for an affordable $12.50 for up to 2.5 hours.

Cervantes
The gateway to Western Australia’s Pinnacles Desert, Cervantes is the beginning of Australia’s Coral Coast region. An hour and half drive will have you arriving at tranquil waters, sandy beaches and marine life, and have you feeling relaxed and zen in no time. There is a huge list of things to do and see at Cervantes but we think the Pinnacles should be at the top of your list!
Located in the heart of the Nambung National Park, the Pinnacles Desert is one of Australia’s most unique landscapes, featuring thousands of limestone spires, some up to 12 metres tall. Explore the desert on a four-kilometre driving trail or stroll through at your own pace on the 1.2 kilometre walking trail. The kids will love exploring the flora, fauna and don’t forget to get a photo too! To plan your day out at Cervantes, visit: https://www.australiascoralcoast.com/destination/cervantes
