Who are we?
Join us in exploring the beauty of Karratha!
We are two eager adventurers with two beautiful dogs who are keen to share the beauty of the Pilbara region. We hope that you find some inspiration in these destinations to appreciate the stunning nature of North West Western Australia.
Please remember to stay respectful and take all rubbish with you to keep nature pristine in this part of the world.
Explore Karratha would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians throughout Western Australia and their continuing connection to the land, waters and community. We pay our respects to all members of the Aboriginal communities and their cultures; and to Elders both past and present.
Make sure to share your adventures in the Pilbara by using the hashtag #explorekarratha
