Yallingup
For thousands of years prior to European settlement Yallingup was the primary ‘honeymoon’ destination for many Aboriginal people. Yallingup literally translates into “place of love.” The Wardan Aboriginal Cultural Centre covers the rich Aboriginal history in the region. The Centre offers a traditional Aboriginal tool making workshop along with lessons on art, music, and Aboriginal dace. See www.wardan.com.au or phone (08) 9756 6566.
The coastal part of town is blessed with a terrific reef break. Naturally the surf culture reigns supreme but it does blend nicely with both the country and urban vibes that make this town so very unique. Aside from surfing these waves, check out Canal Rocks - an unusual rock formation that can be traversed by narrow bridges.
