Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse, Western Australia

A shot taken with my 70-200mm lense from a long way away! No photoshop. All comments appreciated - paul

In the far south west of Western Australia is the famed Leeuwin Naturaliste National Park, with a coastal walking trail connecting the two capes ( about 100 kms long, give or take a few). Wyadup is not all that far from the growing town of Dunsborough (about 15 minutes) and about 20 minutes from Margaret River, of wineries fame. There are absolutely no facilities at Wyadup so come prepared!

This is looking down on the Indian Ocean from a cliff close to Canal Rocks. The time of year is late winter and we are currently in the middle of a dry, sunny spell of weather. Canal Rocks is around 350kms south west of Perth, Western Australia
-
We are still on the Cape to Cape walking track as we look behind us at Yallingup Beach, the nursery for most of our state’s top surfers and one of our very favourite places. This is on the Indian Ocean coast some 320kms south west of Perth, Western Australia. I might add that the ocean is usually far more active than it is in this picture. This is all part of the Leeuwin/Naturaliste National Park.

The coastline surrounding Sugarloaf Rock in the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park in Western Australia. The rock itself dominates the coastline near Cape Naturaliste. A beautiful area with rugged outcrops it is worth the drive. To get to this point drive onto Sugarloaf Rock Road west of Dunsborough, which is itself approx 3 hours plus south of Perth. Camera: Olympus FE 240 compact

The Indian Ocean at Cape Leeuwin – the most south westerly point of Australia and some 400+ kms south of Perth. As can be seen it was a rather stormy day and almost every front that comes in crosses our coast at this point, which makes it a great place for taking photos. Sony Alpha350 dslr / 18-70 lens with x4ND filter / Hand held (too windy and the rocks too slippery to risk putting it on a tripod)

This was a repeating scene at Redgate Beach when we visited there last Saturday, 14 March. Redgate is on the Indian Ocean coast of Western Australia some 300+ kms south west of Perth. It is a very popular surfing location, as are most of the beaches along this 120 kms stretch of coastline. Sony Alpha350 dslr / 18-70 lens with nd filter / Aperture preferred set to f11 / Hand held

Returning back into Fremantle (28 Dec 2008) / Launched in 1986, Leeuwin II is Australia’s largest ocean-going tall ship and is dedicated to challenging and inspiring people on adventurous ocean voyages. A voyage on Leeuwin II is designed to assist and educate people, develop our youth and the wider community in terms of leadership, team skills, community spirit and environmental awareness.

This Lighthouse, built in 1895 is on the Southern Tip of Western Australia near Augusta and is where the Indian and Southern oceans meet.

Leeuwin II is Western Australia’s own Tall Ship, a 3-masted barquentine with over 810 square metres of sail and a length overall of 55 metres. / The ship is operated by the Leeuwin Ocean Adventure Foundation Ltd, a private not-for-profit organisation based in Fremantle, Western Australia. Most of the year, it journeys up and down the Western Australian coastline on longer voyages, mostly for teenagers to help build their confidence and skills, sometimes for disadvantaged or disabled sailors, and occasionally for paying adults on eco-cruises. Over the Christmas period, however, the Leeuwin is based at Fremantle again and locals and tourists are able to buy tickets for a morning, afternoon or twilight sail. / So here is the Sail Training Ship Leeuwin, a replica three-masted barquentine built in Western Australia leaving Fremantle harbour at sunset .

I love lighthouses, they are a reminder of a time before GPS, reliable radio and many other technologies that we take for granted these days.. All comments appreciated - paul http://www.paulmp.com.au

Taken on the Indian Ocean side of Cape Leeuwin on a day when the sun wouldn’t shine for anything!

I must be honest – we didn’t walk ALL of it! After all, it is over 100 kms from Cape Naturaliste to Cape Leeuwin and this walking trail hugs the coast and cliff tops for all of that distance. But we did do several short sections, as I shall be showing during the coming days and weeks. This section is at Wyadup, in the south west of Western Australia some 300 kms south of Perth. We are looking north to Canal Rocks which is just a couple of kms by the walking trail but nearer 15 kms by road. The whole area is part of the Leeuwin Naturaliste National Park

Before the boardwalk and bridge were constructed about 12 years ago people (mostly fishermen) had a rough scramble over the rocks and then a very precarious walk across this “canal” on a rather rickety plank of wood, with but a single length of rope to serve as a handrail. Now every man and his dog can get there and a popular pastime is to just lean on the handrail and watch the ocean as it slams into the rocks and sends mini tidal waves rushing up underneath the bridge. I have spent many an hour doing just that, with camera clicking away almost non stop and this is where just a couple of weeks ago I finally got the sunset picture I had been after for 20+ years. Canal Rocks – as the area is known – came by it’s name from the channels, or canals, that had been formed in the rocks by countless eons of wave erosion. It is now part of the Leeuwin Naturaliste National Park. Over the years several unwary fishermen have been swept off the rocks by sudden and unexpected King waves and never seen again.

A scene by the boardwalk and bridge at Canal Rocks, near Yallingup on the Indian Ocean coast of Western Australia about 330kms south of Perth.

The road down to Redgate Beach is missed by the vast majority of people travelling along Caves Road. Admittedly the sign is not all that brilliant and most people have probably just visited Prevelly and Gnarabup and are now anxious to get to Augusta. This is a shame, especially during spring when wildflower hunters will be ecstatic with what they can find along the side of the road.

I am standing in the Leeuwin Naturaliste National Park and this is the popular view from the car park cum scenic lookout as you descend the hill into Yallingup. In the extreme distance can be seen Canal Rocks and if you look VERY closely you can just make out the green roof of the resort at which we were staying, almost IN the Indian Ocean! / Smith’s Beach is something like 350 kms south of Perth, Western Australia and this photo was taken during our visit in the spring of last year – early November to be precise. As was so often the case we were quite amazed at how much colour there was almost at the water’s edge. / This was taken with my Sony alpha 350 dslr using the 18-70 Sony kit lens.

Another shot of the Indian Ocean in all it’s glory as it pounds on to Redgate Beach in the far south west of Western Australia. The surfing fraternity are in their element here this morning! / We are about 300 kms or about 3 1/2 to 4 hours driving south of Perth. Sony Alhpa 350 / 18-70 lens with nd filter attached / Aperture preferred at f11 / Tripod mounted

Another of the Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse W.A. I thought this one looked great with the Aussie flag and the old huts in front of the Lighthouse.
