Eucla dunes WA

Survey Point Eucla dunes WA
Latitude -31.7347200 (31° 44′ 5″ S)
Longitude 128.8522200 (128° 51′ 8″ E)

About 4km west of Eucla on the Eyre Hwy the track heads south towards the sea. The landward side of the dunes is desolate and treeless, there is a nice vegetative cover over the walk through the dunes track to the beach. Driving over the dunes is possible but I frown upon the practice, and suggest you walk instead.

Camp rating 7, 4wd is needed to get over the first set of dunes to a protected area not far from the sea, there are no facilities here
