  • CORRECTION: The museum is at 6 James St, Esperance and the Mini Railway is on Taylor Street. (Not sure how I managed to quote the wrong addresses for these.)
    Esperance is a little over 700 kilometres from the state capital Perth and is quite isolated.
    It is the most important town in south east W.A. and there is nothing to match it for 400 kilometres north until you reach Kalgoorlie or for almost 460 kilometres to the west where you reach Katanning.
    It’s importance to the area it is situated in cannot be overstated.
    In addition to that, the area around the town has some of the most spectacular beaches you will ever see. People rave about Cable Beach in Broome, but is does not compare to the beaches between Esperance and Orleans Bay.
    CORRECTION: Skylab actually fell to Earth in 1979, not in 1980.

    Totally agree with you that the Esperance beaches are just superb and better than most of the other popular WA coastal tourist hot spots albeit that the water is pretty darned cold! And the area is still relatively uncrowded if you choose your visit times.

    Close. Skylab was July 79. NASA still have an outstanding littering fine. I think that may have been $400. Beautiful part of WA. Keen to explore more. Thanks for uploading.

    Nice town, apart from the cold ocean water at its beaches.

    Great place Esperance. A couple of years ago the beaches were listed as one of the best in the world. Mind you I would never get in it. To many sharks
