Rugged, Beautiful, Bucket list! What an amazing drive - Ep 152

In this week's episode, we’re tackling one of Australia's most iconic road trips: the Eyre Highway from Norseman (WA) to Ceduna (SA)! 🚗💨 We’re doing it the Trip 4 2 way—free camping under the stars, soaking up the vastness of the Nullarbor Plain, and sharing the reality of life on the road. We pull over at some incredible bush camps along the way, including the famous 13km Peg Lookout just over the South Australian border, which offers some of the best views of the coastal dunes. In this video, we cover: The Skylab Story: Did you know the Nullarbor was the site of a space-age "littering" incident? We dive into the fascinating history of the 1979 Skylab re-entry that saw debris falling right here in the outback. Budget Breakdown: We chat about the costs of this stretch—from fuel prices in remote roadhouses to how we manage our food and supplies to keep costs down. Nullarbor Survival Guide: We share our top tips and tricks for driving the Eyre Highway safely, including how to handle the long stretches, wildlife awareness (especially at dusk!), and how to find the best camp spots using apps. Travel Tips for the Nullarbor: Fuel Strategy: Prices vary wildly between roadhouses. Use apps like FuelMap to track prices and always keep a reserve. Border Crossing: Remember, you cannot take most fresh produce (fruits, veggies, plants) across the WA/SA border. Eat it or ditch it before you arrive! Wildlife: It’s called the Nullarbor, but it’s full of life. Avoid driving between dusk and dawn to stay safe from kangaroos and camels. Preparation: Always carry extra water and have your vehicle serviced before hitting this stretch. Mobile reception is very limited, so download your maps offline!
