Western Australia – 14 Mile Beach – Warroora Station
Welcome to 14 Mile — the kind of place you end up when you’ve had enough of crowds, phone signal, and flatpack suburbia. Sitting just south of Coral Bay inside Warroora Station, this is raw, reef-fringed coastline that hums with isolation and serious kite potential.
When the SE or SW seabreeze kicks in — which it reliably does from October to March — you’ve got a long, open beach to launch from and a big blue canvas ahead. The reef sits offshore, filtering the swell and serving up flat sections with little kickers, depending on tide and mood.
You’ll need a 4WD to access most of the beachfront campsites, though there’s a couple of tucked-away spots behind the dunes where a careful 2WD can squeeze in. No toilets, no power, no hand-holding — bring your own everything. A camp toilet is required, and there are no dump points nearby, so plan ahead and leave no trace.
It’s not polished. It’s not convenient. But it’s unforgettable. The kind of place where the stars come out in stupid numbers, the breeze rolls in like clockwork, and you remember what silence sounds like between sessions.
