No. Warroora has been granted a licence to manage coastal camping access over this property. It is all wilderness camping and you must come fully prepared with plenty of water, wood, shelter & a chemical toilet.
No, No Entry & No Camping signs mean just that. Sustainable camping sites are marked with a white numbered buoy on top of a mulga pole - our Pearl Necklace. Likewise Tracks Closed - Rehabilitation Areas etc. must be respected please. When you see a Road Closed sign it means if you ignore it you will probably become bogged and could be fined by the Local Authority $1,000 per wheel, plus there will be a charge to free your vehicle.
99% of the coastal access requires a 4WD. Under good road conditions (not wet) 2WD vehicles can access the 14 Mile Beach and the Homestead. Remember to let your tyres down on the sandy tracks. Remember always to travel very slowly to avoid damaging the tracks. We ask that you never travel over 40kph on the tracks there is just too much wildlife around which is at risk, plus for your own safety you need to proceed very slowly.
No, the dunes are very mobile and MUST NOT be disturbed.
No, to ensure the sustainability of this fragile landscape and the good health of nesting turtles on the beaches, Warroora DOES NOT allow motorbikes. If you arrive with a motorbike you will be asked to leave it at the Homestead.
You must get permission from Warroora first, all dogs permitted to access the property MUST BE kept on a leash and are the full responsibility of the owners. Remember the property has been baited to control foxes. If your dog takes a bait then it is your own responsibility. Any animal found interfering with stock will be destroyed. Cats are not permitted.
Campfires are permitted. All wood must be brought in, none collected on Warroora. All campfires must be extinguished before being left unattended. Campfire debris must be disposed of at the rubbish pits.
Ningaloo Marine Park fishing rules must be respected, brochures are available at our office. Ideally we would like visitors to take no more than 2 fish per day to ensure the sustainability of this wonderful resource. Fish offal can be buried at high water mark or disposed of in the rubbish pits NOT at the waters edge. No shells are to be taken.
Yes, if the weather conditions are suitable many visitors enjoy recreating in dinghies. Warroora is not suitable for launching of large vessels, it must be remembered however, at all times to respect the ocean, there are powerful currents and conditions change very quickly. Never go out along the Ningaloo Reef coastline without all the necessary safety equipment, nor without letting someone know when you are due back.
No, unless you are staying at the accommodation provided at the Homestead. Visitors asking for overnight access will have to be refused if they do not have a chemical toilet.
No firearms are permitted on the property.
Help us by keeping to the simple rules. Respect the environment at all times.
