Geraldton: Geraldton Airport

Few cities in Western Australia have a history as closely tied to a working port as Geraldton. Set on Champion Bay along the Indian Ocean, it is a Mid West service centre, and the Port of Geraldton ships grain, iron ore and mineral sands from inland Australia. Its coastline also forms the southern end of the Coral Coast, the long shore route leading north towards Kalbarri and Shark Bay. The HMAS Sydney II Memorial honours the 645 men lost when the cruiser HMAS Sydney was sunk in 1941, creating a place of national remembrance by the waterfront.

Western Australia occupies the western third of the Australian continent, stretching from the Indian Ocean coast to the dry heart of the outback. Its remote interior is defined by sandy plains, low dunes and spinifex grasslands, with immense distances between settlements. This is part of a wider network of Aboriginal Country: Indigenous peoples have maintained profound cultural connections to these lands for tens of thousands of years. Far from Perth and the coastal cities, the region reflects the scale and solitude of inland Australia, where travel demands preparation, respect for local access conditions and an awareness of seasonal heat.

Australia’s terrain extends from tropical rainforests in the northeast to arid plains in the interior, producing dramatic climatic contrasts. The Great Dividing Range follows much of the eastern coast, while the Great Barrier Reef lies off Queensland in the Coral Sea and Uluru rises from the central desert. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples maintain living cultures whose connections to Country long predate European settlement. In Sydney, the sail-like Opera House, completed in 1973, stands beside one of the world’s best-known harbours. Discover further points of interest through webcams located across Australia.
