Flathead Point just metres from our camp site on a perfect windless day. Hopetoun has a number of bays with crystal clear blue waters, white beaches, rocks and reefs, many of which fall within the Fitzgerald River National Park. Hopetoun was established in 1900 servicing the Phillips River mining district and became a shipping port for the gold mining industry until 1936 when it was closed. A nickel mine in the area has recently been closed for repairs following the explosion of one of the tanks.

The wild and beautiful 5 mile beach on a cloudless summer day.
This Black Bream was caught in Culham Estuary but set free and returned to its natural habitat. The fisherwoman isn't ready to consume her first catch!
Serendipity at Flathead Point! Dolphins enjoying the calm early morning before the predictable strong afternoon winds blow in.
