After a walking day, time for a coast & beach day: Kalbarri coastline has a few more lookouts and beaches to visit. We started at Pot Alley Lookout. The views on the layered coastline were great - the beach however did look too tempting, especially as it was very windy. There were some wildflowers on the rocks, but pretty tiny ones. Stuart had to stay in the car the whole day because the winds would have blown him away.
We drove on to the Rainbow Valley Lookout. Not sure, why it got this name, but you can see where in former time the sea levels was and how the stones and ground looked like.
The next stop is Mushroom Rock Lookout. Well, one can imagine this rock looks like a mushroom, but the other lookouts on the coast were more interesting. At least there were some wildflowers on the walk.
The most favourite name for lookouts seems to be Red Bluff, so of course also Kalbarri has its Red Bluff Lookout. Already at the car park it is very windy and when you walk to the lookout the wind increases, so you almost get the impression to be blown off the cliffs. The short walk and the great views on the reddish cliffs were worth the fight against the wind.
The last lookout or beach for the day, which is already located at the border of the town of Kalbarri: Chinaman´s beach. It is a short walk from one of the carparks nearby to a small lookout, from which you can see the beach of Kalbarri as well as the small way for boats out on the sea. The beach is pretty empty, with only a few people on one side where the winds are not too strong. In this area the wildflowers also grow better and bigger
