Ultimate Coastal Road Trips: Australia is Lee Atkinson's completely new guidebook for Australia's best road trips near the water, a perfect companion to her bestselling Ultimate Road Trips: Australia.
This comprehensive guide covers 40 seaside road trips around the country including the Great Ocean Road, Western Australia’s Coral Coast, the Grand Pacific Drive, and K'gari, Flinders and Bruny islands. All trips in the book focus exclusively on the coast and offer a wealth of detail for those planning a beach holiday, as well as some worthwhile side trips inland (if you have the time).
For each road trip there is a day-by-day itinerary with information on road conditions, what to see and do, rainy-weather options, best time to go and how long it will take. There are also stunning images of our most spectacular stretches of coastline and detailed maps.
Use this book as inspiration to live the Australian dream and follow the sun along our iconic coastline.
