Some mates and I decided to SUP and canoe paddle the Walpole and Nornalup Inlet in WA's southwest, its a great spot 5 hrs from Perth and basically a lazy fishing town for old people....

Here's our track...we camped on the beach on the inside of the inlet as it was blowing SE onshore (usually thats offshore in WA but not in Walpole!). We only did about 15km a day



here is the inlet looking west from where we camped, like glass in the early morning.



Our motley crew, breakfast drink anyone?



just cruising around and waving at crew in houseboats that dot the inlet...



The 16ft penetrator loved the conditions



Circus beach on the ocean side, big swell and breeding ground for white pointers



Beautiful colours in the rockpools fed by a spring in the rocks



Making camp on the beach



cooking up a storm of dodgy processed meat



a few beers, dinner and a fire on the beach



Everyone was happy
