Point Samson

Point Samson is located near the mining town of Karratha. As there is not much to see in Karratha itself we decided to stay at Point Samson.

During our stay we decided to embrace the Tour de France and do a Tour de Mum on our bikes to see the sights of Point Samson. Our tour went for approximately 1.5km and had 6 stages (or stops).

Stop 1: Honeymoon Cove

Stop 1: Shipwreck off Honeymoon Cove

Stop 2: Historic Jetty - or as Ethan called it Prehistoric Jetty (although he could not explain how the dinosaurs built it)

Stop 2: Carriges used at the Historic Jetty

Stop 3: Samson Beach - Soldier crab hunting

Stop 3: Samson Beach - octopus in the pools when the tide is out (about the size of a plate)

Stop 3: Samson Beach - octopus spitting water at us as a warning.

Stop 4: Park

Stop 6: Cape Lambert iron ore loading facility

The family enjoyed this Tour de Mum much better than the Tour de Mum in Carnarvon where we were stopping at the roadside fruit and veg stalls.
