Camping is permitted in the Cape Range National Park (basic facilities) and within station properties (BYO eco-toilets).

Bushwalking provides the opportunity to spot endangered native animals like the dibbler, a small marsupial which has recently been rediscovered in the park. You can go whale watching from Bremer Beach and Point Ann, two places along the coast where Southern Right Whales come to calve during their winter migration.

The park can be accessed from the western side via Bremer Bay - arguably the Western Australia’s most interesting town, or from the eastern side via Hopetoun. The central area of the park is only accessible with a four wheel drive vehicle or on foot.
