Hi Giggleswick,
When? From late April through to the end of September if you're a southerner & don't like a bit of hot weather/humidity. If you like the latter, I'd say up to early November.
A lot of Nomads are on the road in March though.
The northern wet season runs from late November to about Anzac Day, if we get one. Cyclones can come in late (April, May) - we need them to bring the rain but not the damage!
Travel direction - most people go anti-clockwise - mainly for the prevailing winds coming from Kalgoorlie to Pt Augusta.
Why would you miss out on seeing the southern coast of WA (nearly God's country)?
Happy planning.

Last year we did from Perth to Poison Creek pretty much all the coast.
Thanks everyone - we actually did the south last year - Norseman/Kalgoorlie/Perth/Bussleton/Margaret River/Albany/Esperance (including Rottnest Island and two weeks in the wheatbelt area) - enjoyed everyday - great spots.
We live in Newcastle by the way.

On those beautiful beaches with that unbelievably white sand and beautiful aqua blue water where if you sit and watch a shark is likely to swim by. (no they were not dolphins).
Hi all - will keep this short for the time being
Two questions -
which way? - Port Augusta / Alice Springs / Tennant Creek / Broome / Geraldton / Kalgoorlie / Port Augusta or vice versa
and
when is the best time of the year to travel? (when things hopefully get back to normal)
