Alyssa Tresider 0 1685 Article rating: No rating

Winter on Western Australia’s Coral Coast is all about big skies, calm roads, and even bigger marine encounters. With mild daytime temperatures around 20–25°C depending on how far north you travel, this is a great season to slow down, explore national parks, picnic on empty beaches, and witness the humpback whale migration. You can also catch the tail end of whale shark season at Ningaloo Reef in early winter, making this a dream time to combine iconic wildlife swims with leisurely coastal drives. This relaxed 14-day round trip from Perth in an Apollo 2WD campervan keeps each day under four hours behind the wheel, sticking to sealed roads and savoring the best of Western Australia’s Coral Coast from Perth to Exmouth and back.

A winter road trip escape to South Australia’s Barossa Valley is all about misty mornings, bold reds by crackling fires, and slow days spent wandering between vineyards, trails and country markets. With comfortable daytime temperatures around the mid teens and crisp, clear nights, the cooler months are ideal for couples who want to savour big flavours and quiet landscapes without the summer crowds. This relaxed five day campervan itinerary starts and ends in Adelaide and keeps drives short so you can linger over tastings, unwind in a day spa, and stroll scenic lookouts at sunset. After you collect your campervan from Apollo’s Adelaide branch, you will travel on easy, sealed roads and settle into welcoming caravan parks that make cozy evenings simple. Throughout, remember the golden rule of wine country: never drink and drive. Book a local tour, use a shuttle, or plan to stay within walking distance of a cellar door. Many wineries and farm stays also host self-contained campervans by prior arrangement so you can taste responsibly and rest on site.
