Esperance - Western Australia
Published 2024-07-02
It is the most important town in south east W.A. and there is nothing to match it for 400 kilometres north until you reach Kalgoorlie or for almost 460 kilometres to the west where you reach Katanning.
It’s importance to the area it is situated in cannot be overstated.
In addition to that, the area around the town has some of the most spectacular beaches you will ever see. People rave about Cable Beach in Broome, but is does not compare to the beaches between Esperance and Orleans Bay.
CORRECTION: Skylab actually fell to Earth in 1979, not in 1980.

Really well researched, thanks for your work on this episode.

One of your best videos! Visited in 1987 when my family was young and loved the place. MIght end up retiring there later this year.

Thank you for the extended look at such a beautiful area!
-
Very beautiful
-
Totally agree with you that the Esperance beaches are just superb and better than most of the other popular WA coastal tourist hot spots albeit that the water is pretty darned cold! And the area is still relatively uncrowded if you choose your visit times.

Close. Skylab was July 79. NASA still have an outstanding littering fine. I think that may have been $400. Beautiful part of WA. Keen to explore more. Thanks for uploading.

Nice town, apart from the cold ocean water at its beaches.
-
Great place Esperance. A couple of years ago the beaches were listed as one of the best in the world. Mind you I would never get in it. To many sharks
