Say farewell to the dolphins and retrace your tracks back to the North West Coastal Highway, heading south to Geraldton. It’s a five-and-a-half-hour drive, so be sure to break the journey with a refreshment break at a roadhouse or Northampton, one of Western Australia’s oldest towns. Continue south to Geraldton where more of the region’s history is revealed in the city’s grand colonial heritage, Spanish missionary architecture and Geraldton Museum. Go down to the foreshore and you’ll see how Geraldton has earned the title ‘Australia’s windsurfing capital’. Watch the pros in action or test your own skills in the perfect wind and wave conditions at Point Moore, Sunset Beach, St George's Beach or Coronation Beach.
