Point Samson Glamping

 This is now the second year we have spent a week glamping at Point Samson Beach Caravan Park. Like last year we timed our stay to coincide with our wedding anniversary – 32yrs on the 19th August.

After almost five weeks "roughing it" out on the beach campgrounds we treated ourselves to a week of power, water, swimming pools, washing machines (to keep the missus happy), food and beer at Point Samson Beach Caravan Park. 

The caravan park is very small and coincidentally happens to be adjacent the Samson Beach Tavern which has happy hours every afternoon and “famous fish and chips”.



Cocktails for the girls

Our 32nd wedding anniversary was a little more special this year with a dozen friends dropping in for a beer and meal at the Tavern.







I did a little fishing in the bay in front of the caravan park, but you will note from the lack of bragging photos and fish stories that it was a fizzer with only about 18 whiting caught over 4 fishing expeditions. 

No fishing here!

While we were in town, we did a bit of “touristing” (yep the fishing was that bad!) around the area with a visit to Harding Dam (about 25km east of Roebourne) which is the primary water supply for Karratha, Dampier, Roebourne, Wickham and Point Samson, a trip up Mount Welcome to Roebourne look-out, and lunch at historic Cossack Settlement. Nice day out.




Plan is to a repeat next year when we are north again for winter.
