That’s right, we are ditching the luxury of our caravan, heading off grid and going back to basics!
Part 2 of our Steep Point series is here!
Come with us as we leave the comfort of Shelter Bay campground and explore Edel Land National Park on a day trip.
We head out to Steep Point, the most westerly point of mainland Australia and experience the slow-going rugged limestone terrain to enjoy watching the giant waves from the deep blue Indian Ocean crashing against the beautiful white Zuytdorp Cliffs.
Back at camp, we have to change sites from beach front to a little more secluded site and show you guys our “going back to basics” set up.
Rain on our last full day dampened our spirits slightly, but when the amount of rain closes Useless Loop Road and the potential of having to stay out in paradise for another night was on the cards, we weren’t too worried.
Now its time to sit back and enjoy

[@raybourne5781]

Some very good music selection… been to steep point… really worth the effort to go 👍!

[@Explore_oz]

Appreciate the kind words, music can either make or brake videos sometimes haha. Steep point is incredible and we would absolutely love to go back there again one day.

[@VaughanMunro-js4nr]

Part 2 just as good as Part 1. The amazing scenery of the cliffs and rocks, compared to the beaches and sand. The rain just added to the adventure.

[@Explore_oz]

The rain is just part of it hey, no way we were going to let is destroy our time out there. So glad you enjoyed the episode too, we love producing them and sharing them for you watch 🫶.

[@Explore_oz]

Thanks so much for watching, we appreciate the kind words 😍😍🤗🤗 Also thanks for the heads up, we will go and give Vet in a Van’s video a look.

[@martinfinn674]

Getting 'stuck' at steep point...oh suffer in your jocks. It's a bit like the time (on lap 1) when I broke down just out of Lorne on the Great Ocean Road. We adventurers have to take the good with the great.

[@Explore_oz]

Hahaha bad day adventuring still beats a good day working 😂

[@Courtz9800]

You should name it Jimmy then you got Timmy & Jimmy 😂😂😂

[@Explore_oz]

Hahahaha that's not bad at all!

[@charlie-jay]

Another great episode, guys 👍. Always enjoy getting up on a Sunday morning, sparking up a coffee, and checking out. What You guys are up to on your adventures . Camp spot looked like a great place to spend a couple of days 😀. Definitely need to come up with a name for the caravan just for fun 😂 we called ours Jayco Gyllenhaal 😆 it's pretty silly, but that's our style. we are two twin idiots 😅 . Take it easy, guys, safe travels, and will catch ya in the next one 👍🍻🤙

[@Overweightandunderpowered]

Name for the caravan 😅 looks like a boiled egg . White on the outside and has a yellow ish tinge to the timber cabinets on the inside 😂

[@Explore_oz]

Thankyou so much legend!!! So happy to have you watching our episodes ☺️, plus… Coffee is the only way to start the morning and day 😂 Have you got shelter bay on the list of places to visit?? We can’t wait to get back there again one day! We looooove the name ‘Jayco Gyllenhaal’, it’s absolutely brilliant!!! 😂😂😂. Not silly at all, it’s perfect 👌

[@Explore_oz]

Hahahhahaha I had a good ol laugh at the boiled egg 🥚 love it! Jess was a hard pass on it though 😂

[@Overweightandunderpowered]

​@@Explore_ozha ha not too bad you can call him Eggy 😂 he he all good guys safe travels 🤙🍻👍

[@Explore_oz]

I keep on trying to remind her of 'Eggy' and still getting a hard pass from Jess haha

[@jeffcorkill3816]

Dirk Hartog is amazing budget for it and do it.

[@Explore_oz]

Sounds like we might have to take another trip out there just to head over to DHI 😂

[@jeffcorkill3816]

@@Explore_oz you won’t regret it

[@Explore_oz]

Fingers crossed we can make it happen sooner rather than later haha

[@brianmercer0113]

Go west young man, go west and you did

[@Explore_oz]

Went as far west as we could 😂😂😂. To be honest we would go back out there again and again and again. It’s an unreal place!

[@thumpergman]

I tried entering, useless loop road on Monday and was faced with a road closed sign grrrrrr

[@Explore_oz]

Nooooooo!!!! But once you do get out there you can understand why they close the roads in the rain. They would just get destroyed and people would get stuck everywhere.

Nice and easy, I like it!
