Headed north with tinny
Hey guys, me and the old boy are planning on heading north to exmouth and after a few days starting our route south again stopping at coral bay , shark bay and then kalbarri.
have a 4.4 Ali centre console with a 40 on the back.
have a basic plan for exmouth as I've been there twice before but after that I've never been anywhere until kalbarri,
I'm hoping someone can share some insight on so good places inbetween that may be worth a look for both land based and in the tub ,
old boy isn't the most experienced boaty but I have down a fair bit down metro and geo bay
Any ways just thought ide ask for any recommendations for places, there's alot on the web and in the search button on here but interested in everyone's ideas and advice
4x4 is set up for anywhere and we can camp most places and be self sufficient,
but for our first time we still sort of want to stay on the grid
cheers in advance

Gnarloo is good fishing
Make sure your trailer is up to scratch because the track in can be rather bumpy. But the fishing is really good when you know where to head. Most people always head south because the wind howls in the afternoon from a southerly direction. But if you manage to snag some good weather the fishing can be red hot.
It is a beach launch so be wary of that, but very protected calm waters where you launch. A drop down spare wheel is the best method for a tinnie of your size to ensure your car doesn't get wet.

Just came back from there defiantly a nice place, nice and sheltered in front of reef great diving..pretty hard going to get past the Charlie court tho. The guys next to us were doing well on the outside coming back with reds rankin and trout most days They went out. great place for family with kids and all the other campers seem like good people and would help ya out if you get stuck
we have a 6 month old she came up with us and wouldn't hesitate doing it again,

I've been doing the trailer
I've been doing the trailer up a bit now aswell as the boat, being our first road trip up I think we wanna stick to the main haunts, we have thought about Ningaloo station a lot, but considering it's only a 10 day trip all up so wanna see as much as we can this time around before I can bring up my young bloke and do some more remote places,
I would love to do both places mentioned above though!
Any place we should avoid? Don't want to waste time at a location with just the ten days,
