DNP is 130km long stretching along the south coast of Western Australia. It is named after a French admiral who was the first European to sight the area in 1792. To the chagrin of the locals he never actually set foot on the land bearing his name. The park contains beaches, dunes, forests and rivers. Much of the DNP is only accessible by 4WD vehicles which have had their tyre pressure reduced. There is a map symbol for such roads, of which there are quite a few in Western Australia. As our hire car was far from suitable, we found via the internet Graeme, a guide and local eco expert with all the gear required to take us across rough terrain, through the dunes and onto a 30km almost empty beach.
