Hi Dain, thanks for a great video and the recommendations. By the way do you have any recommendations for hiring a camper van?

[@DainLuka]

Always use travellers autobarn they are the best !! Thanks for watching 😃

[@RK-xj1fs]

Very helpful video! I’m going to WA and was planning where to visit and you solved that part entirely 😭 what a great itinerary

[@DainLuka]

[@DainLuka]

[@yourlocalexplorers]

Such an incredible travel guide😮 thanks for these useful tips 🎉

[@DainLuka]

Glad it is useful! Thanks for watching guys ☺️

[@sandgroperwookiee65]

Yep,most folk have no idea how totally stunning the Sth West of Australia is. The Nth West is certainly absolutely spectacular too,but the Sth West & it's beaches just blow you away😮😯😲🤯....bloody gorgeous forests too❤️ ...their loss! 😁 ✌️

[@DainLuka]

Thanks for watching guys ! I have been considering a move there because it’s so beautiful ☺️

[@sandgroperwookiee65]

@@DainLuka yep,it's a great state & soooo much to see & do! ..I lived in Eastbourne from 90-93, I really loved it!... but apart from having Europe close by, Australia wins hands down ..& WA is the most spectacular place here ❤️ Come on down again👍🙃 ✌️

[@DainLuka]

@sandgroperwookiee65 Eastbourne is lovely! I used to live in Brighton ☺️ I just travelled up the north coast so be sure to check out that 🤩

[@sandgroperwookiee65]

Ahh Brighton...very eclectic 😁 Yes, I've been all over WA too plus all the interior & there's so much natural beauty for damn sure. I didn't have a notification of your reply, but this video came up again so I'm watching again lol ..though did this time notice your spelling of Fremantle 🫨😵‍💫 lol ..not Free... @@DainLuka

[@DainLuka]

Ah I’m so bad with spelling dammit! 🤦‍♂️ yes strongly considering moving there I live over on the east coast but I love WA beaches 🤟🏼

[@lucdelhaize4029]

Yep, a great report but as you say just a teaser as there are heaps more things and places to do and visit. In Esperance a visit to the Helms Arboretum is a must in August and September to see an amazing array of native orchids. For those with a bit more time out further than Cape Le Grande NP is Cape Arid NP which is equally stunning but due to the distance less frequented which in itself is a bonus to those who love the peace and quiet and again the area is bristling with native orchids.

[@DainLuka]

Thanks for watching!! so much to do I already can't wait to go back 🤩

[@Davo-i1s]

Just got home from a trip down the west coast from Kununrra to Esperance towing our caravan. We stayed a couple of nights in Ravensthorpe because we decided to leave the van there and drive up to Wave Rock. We stocked up on lollies for the grand kids at the candy shop before we headed to Esperance,. The beaches in that area are spectacular especially Lucky Bay in the Cape Le Grande National Park. I'm glad that you enjoyed the south west of WA but believe me there is so much more of that state that you really need to see.

[@DainLuka]

That candy shop is sooo lovely !! I am currently driving through the north west so I tottally know what you mean ! There is so much to see in WA 😍

[@Davo-i1s]

@@DainLuka there are certainly plenty of incredible places to see on the west coast as well as further inland, the distances between them can be huge and as we move towards summer it will be starting to warm up. Its remarkable how quickly the scenary changes once you get north of Geraldton.

[@BibbleSlayzyCom]

We love tourist! I live in Esperance!

[@Davo-i1s]

I'm pretty sure that will be no shortage of visitors its a beautiful part of the world.

[@anthonyp-gx3mk]

Great video, I love climbing mountains and views of the beach. I notice Esperance has mountains, many good climbs and viewing platforms there?

[@DainLuka]

There are some cool hikes in Cape Le Grande National Park - unfortunately, I ran outta time but you'd deffo have to check them out!

[@louisaklimentos7583]

Lovely advice and don’t forget Bilbunya dunes Eucla in Western Australia . They are Pure white silica sand dunes . In the 1990’s there use to be tours from Perth . Hopefully there are tours or you can drive there .

[@DainLuka]

I will have to add this to my list ! I’m back in WA next month 😍 thanks for watching

[@louisaklimentos7583]

@@DainLuka You will also find Israelite bay there . Make sure you have a 4WD car . Not many British backpackers know about Bilbunya dunes and Israelite bay . You are so good at these travel vlogs . .

[@MeganeRey]

Great video ! Thank you so much !! Planning on doing the same route in November, do you have any tips on which camps to stay in as we're doing it in a caravan ?

[@DainLuka]

Thanks for watching!! I found them all on WikiCamps - it's such a good app as it shows Free/paid/powered campsites and reviews with pictures - pretty sure they have a section for caravans too :) I honestly couldn't remember the campsites!! The only trouble we had was Esperance they all seemed to be booked out and we went in March!

[@tjcole6249]

Albany is also a really cool town!

[@DainLuka]

I totally need to spend more time there!!

[@wpf8863]

Beautiful shots and very useful tips. Could you let us know which season or month you visited? Weather looks lovely in your video.

[@DainLuka]

Thanks :) we had a mix of weather. End of March/start of April. Some days were 25/30 degrees others it was very cold... Enjoy the trip!!

[@hollytaylor-reeves]

It’s crazy you only have 6k subs!!!! Australia should sponsor you so you can keep making videos aha

[@DainLuka]

Thank you! Hopefully in a year it’ll be like 60k 😂

[@hollytaylor-reeves]

@@DainLuka ahahha manifestingggggg ✨

[@JuliusLena]

Ufff!! So much Input in one video. Insane. We will do 4 videos output of this. But I love your video.‘n

[@DainLuka]

Thanks guys ! I did originally 4 videos in vlog style but thought I’d do a travel guide version 😊

[@kitkat-uw5sw]

Beautiful! What time is the best to go?

[@DainLuka]

I would say Summer for the best weather! I did this trip at the end of March/April and it was cooler some days !

[@kitkat-uw5sw]

@@DainLuka Thanks for the tip!

[@sylvesterclaude9181]

Hi im going first week of Jan, can you recommend a scenic driveway?

[@DainLuka]

Follow this route and you'll be sorted!!! Thanks for watching :)

[@kiksshimmy]

Haveyou been to Jervis Bay? If so how would you compare the South Coast NSW beaches to WA's beaches?

[@DainLuka]

Yes, it’s not far from where I live! It’s beautiful but not as good as the WA beaches :)

[@klaushiller3879]

At what time of the year/ month you have been there?

[@KR1MSEL]

Not entirely sure what time he went but as someone who does this trip basically every year I would recommend going throughout January, as it's still summer but not as painfully hot as February and not as busy as December.

[@DainLuka]

Hey guys! Thanks for watching 🙌🏻 I did this in March. Weather was mostly mid 20s with a few colder days haha

[@marunewton]

Hey! Im thinking about solo travelling from Perth to Esperance, do you recommend doing this trip by bus?

[@DainLuka]

Hey thanks for watching! I am not sure if buses service this area. I would 100% recommend a camper van or at least a hire car as you can't access a lot of these places with public transport 😊 maybe look online and see if there are any tours !

[@H.B-b4q]

Did you use a sat phone or just a usual sim card?

[@DainLuka]

Sim card is fine - I use the company Boost and I have service EVERYWHERE!

[@H.B-b4q]

@DainLuka thank you! What is a Company boost?

[@DainLuka]

@ the mobile network is called Boost :) you can pick them up in supermarkets!

[@H.B-b4q]

@@DainLuka thank you for help

[@neonvida2351]

Question, what if you holiday working visa is already granted but you have travelled to higher risk countries like Bali before entering Australia (after you visa is granted), would that be a problem? Please answer me if you have any ideas.

[@DainLuka]

I don’t think so - as long as your visa has been approved I don’t think it matters. Mine had been approved in Mexico then I travelled Central America and had no problems !

[@marjutyrjanainen8379]

Where did you hire a campervan?

[@DainLuka]

Travellers autobarn always 🙌🏻

[@Peacemakerblue]

What was your favourite part of Australia?

[@DainLuka]

The Kimberley region or Esperance 😊
