Geraldton Travel Guide

Oakabella Homestead lies along the North West Coastal Highway north of Geraldton in Western Australia, and is a preserved historic homestead and pastoral site. Its buildings keep their old appearance, and the surrounding area has farmland, a creek valley and rugged rock formations that tell visitors about early pioneering and pastoral life in central Western Australia. It offers both insight into the living and working conditions of early settlers and a look at distinctive wilderness scenery, with the nearby creek valley and rocks a particular feature. Beside the highway, it suits a stop during a self-drive trip. Please care for the historic buildings, stay within open areas and take care outdoors with sun protection.

The Western Australian Museum in Geraldton is located at 1 Museum Place in Geraldton, Western Australia, and is a museum themed on local history and nature. Its displays cover Aboriginal culture, European settlement history, maritime and shipwreck artifacts and local ecology, with exhibits linked to shipwrecks in nearby waters being especially distinctive as they tell of the central Western Australian coast's past. The building is modern with clearly arranged galleries, making it a good place to learn about the region's history and nature while visiting the city. Close to the waterfront and the city centre, it is easy to reach and to combine with other city sights. Please follow the museum's rules and care for the exhibits and facilities.
