You WONT see these PLACES in the tourist brochures for Australia
Australia is renowned for its iconic landmarks like the Sydney Opera House, the Great Barrier Reef, and Uluru, but beyond these well-trodden tourist spots, lies a treasure trove of unique and lesser-known destinations that rarely make it into the glossy tourist brochures.
From the otherworldly landscapes of the Pinnacles Desert in Western Australia, where limestone formations rise eerily from the sands, to the serene, turquoise waters of esperance, whose pink hues of pink lake that create a surreal contrast, Australia offers a bunch of hidden gems.
Today I want to share 5 of these off the beaten path locations you’ve probably never heard of and uncover our country’s true gems.

Australia's most dangerous attraction? How has no-one been hurt here!
Excellent video,there isn’t to many videos about the Nullarbor so it’s great to finally see one. Reminds me of the awesome family holidays I used to go on up the NSW coast in the 1980s. It’s certainly a strange part of the world in the Nullarbor,they say the aliens are attracted to the straight road. Who really knows anyway it’s just good to have seen your video cheers from Victoria
Cheers Daniel! It is a fun road trip, on the way over we got a lot more time checking out all the spots to stop. And yes I guess because of the remote location you pick up on a lot more weird stuff. Hello back from Victoria too 👍
Creepy? We spent three nights there and loved it.
It’s such a great place to camp, it was a little creepy at night when no one else is there and there are huge dog prints
My advice. Just go the opposite way you've been recommended or always hear.about. For the real Australia and real Australians just head doen the road unknown with no sign posts. You'll be treated like a friend and not a tourist with money.
Very good advice 🫶
i met some Germans in WA back in the early 90's, in my travels that have not yet ended. They said to me , in Europe we drive for four days we go through five countries, in WA we drive for five days, we still in same state.
This is so very true, WA is so huge! Thanks for commenting Darryll 🫶
I've lived in WA for 60yrs and I've yet to see it all. It's huge.
WA is pretty darn awesome. I have 105 places and most of them are in WA. I live in Vic and have maybe 3 here. Thanks for sharing your beautiful state with us 🫶
These places are all great to know about...thanks!
Awesome Shaun, thanks for your comment and watching 🫶
Really incredible real van life. Wishing one day like you!!! Enjoy🤩
It is really an incredible place 🩵
Great content and beautifully presented thanks for the upload watching from Melbourne Australia 🎉❤🎉
Thank you for your lovely comment, replying from freezing Geelong 🥶
That didn’t help 🤷🏻♀️
Hey Anna, this is just the intro. If you tap on the link it will take you to the full video, I am breaking it down into several shorts videos. Thanks for your comment and feel free to ask me any question’s in the comments
Australian have seen Crocodile Dundee...right?
What rig did you use?
Hi Byron, I am not sure how to answer this one but I know they used jigs of some sort to try to get squid. Not much luck here but more luck at south LeFroy. If you reply I will ask my son and husband to get more specific and let you in on where to go to get the spangos
A LITTLE OVERBOARD, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE REAL PRISONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sounds terrible, but modern prisons are a lot more cozy
Ahh, the old thumb role. If your thumb can get wet by touching any body of the water, most likely something in that water try to eat you.
🤯👍
Forget to mention snakes, they do swim too
Yes water snacks are sooo deadly
I hope he’s okay somehow.
Sadly not, the crocs attacks are getting more and more frequent
How beautiful this site is. The Indian Ocean on a calm day.
Love the honest review
You’d think people would just watch their children especially in a unfamiliar environment
First like no views how weird is that.
Yeah who knows with these algorithms, some stuff goes bonkers and some stuff not at all.
Aw your kitties are doing great. I think a snake was what got my 20 yr old leash walking cat. All the clues said "envenomation" i miss him so much Old bushies used vit c powder as an emergency anti venom has anyone else heard that?
Thanks so much, we are in our new house now and when they get to go to the yard they both walk to the caravan. I think they just like sleeping and looking out the window
You chose to get married and have all that responsibility though….. that’s why I don’t choose that lifestyle. It’s a lot easier be self sufficient. I’m not going to go to work and then be a maid for everyone at home.
I get it, but is it harder to afford everything on your own? Do you also take care of the outside of the house, gardens, car, maintenance of property etc?
@@Donna.Buckingham not if you don't live above your means. My partner and I had been together for eleven years, childfree. We shared household expenses, but without the added costs of children, childcare, schooling, etc., we built a large savings and still had spending money after expenses are paid. We had a mutual split back in February, and while it has been an adjustment to not share expenses with someone, it's not harder than it was before.
@@socksandpi1264 thanks for sharing, it’s good to hear other people perspectives 🫶
Yep still doing it at 74 not stopping any time soon either!
Well done for being so active 🫶
I have some free downloads in my profile if you want to get started 🎉
That's a big drive from Perth. It's on my Bucket list. Seen everything else since 84. Great work guys
It’s such an epic trip, there is so much to see up the east coast of WA too.
@@Donna.Buckingham Sadly my Ford XA back in 84 just didn't have the legs to do the Tip from Daintree
I wonder, how many were innocent.
Good point!
Make me a sandwich
I was making dinner here 😂
101% prices these days are CRAZY and the economy is nuts, hope y’all have a good one❤
It is so crazy, I wish I appreciated how lucky we were in the 2010’s
Great drive..seen camels and donkeys
I thought it was funny too! 😁
Nice bro
Which part the wheel or my joke?
Just a heads up, contained camp fires are permitted at Swimcart in the winter months. All PWS managed reserves and parks throughout Tasmania have fire restrictions in the warmer months, including Cockle Creek.
Great info thanks
Thanku for the video ❤
My pleasure
Good driving sir 🎉
Cheers
I always enjoy your travel videos. They are well put together with lots of great info. 🙂
Thank you so so much for all your support .. I love making them 👍
What’s the following vehicle with the colour matched ARB bumper?
Toyota 79
@@Donna.Buckingham thank you 👌🏻 You ozzies do seem to live a better life than the ones who stayed in England
This is why I am scared to visit Australia and swim in Texas lakes and the North Carolina coast
You work out the places not to swim. Most of the locals still swim here. I found that a bit crazy
It’s closed at the moment
Flooded?
They also berried executed convicts like that with the intention that they should never leave the prison including after death.
Creepy hey
I want to find my baby and do the wild thang in the wilderness
🎉 Where is my baby?
🥲
why is Tilly there if she is so scared ... she is on a ghost tour she may see a ghost
Haha yes she wanted to and she said she did see one. Well feet anyway! Now she wants to go back everyday. Her favourite you tubers were meant to be visiting but we later found they went a few weeks later
Love the chairlift at The Nut, Stanley 😊
Yes that would have been fun. It was closed when we visited
Correction last hanging in Geelong 1965 - last hanging in Melbourne 1967
Very informative. Government run I assume.
It’s such a fun experience, private business
Another great spot if you are looking for a caravan park is the Ingenia CP. If you are coming from Melbourne its the left before you cross over the bridge. right on the river, big sites and open spaces. highly recommended. Its better known as 'Time Out'.
This is so great thanks for sharing! There are so many spots but when you have the van on it can be nerve racking heading down incase you get stuck. Cheers 🙌
Great Video, Thanks for sharing. Just spent 8 days drifting from Yarrawonga to Barmah boat camping and saw some beauifty spots along the way.
Omg this is such a great idea!!! What kind of boat do you have and did you take swags?
I lived there for a year and found it extremely hot
True true it’s pretty hot. Where do you live now?
welcome back. Yes town beach is very popular with the travelling tourist, school holidays and locals. Glad you enjoyed the river. 😀
Thanks for the comment, yes it’s a good alternative if you can use 4wd and I guess it would be a lot quieter not on a long weekend
Such an awesome location. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for all of the great information. 🙂
It is the Murray really has some really amazing camping spots. Sometimes it’s just hard If you have a van on to scope them out first
@@Donna.Buckingham And that makes your videos special because you've done the scoping for us. 🙂
BERNIE?
