Ellendale Pool near Geraldton WA

This is one of the most delightful camping areas we have visited not just in WA but anywhere. It is some 25 kms from Geraldton and the Greenough River forms a very deep natural pool at the fott of an impressive cliff and is surrounded by shady trees. It makes for a lovely picnic area, barbeque or a wedding as the last photo will demonstrate.

This shot of the campsite is taken from the cliff above. The camp area has gas barbeques, flushing toilets, non-drinking bore water and it costs a minimal amount per night.

On the Saturday we were there, a wedding ceremony was held. The wedding party came out on the Friday to practice. They said they were surprised how many campers there were. We campers were surprised that they were surprised, as it is such a lovely spot especially on this very very hot Saturday.

We stayed 4 days and were sorry to leave. But Perth beckons.
