2. Cossack

4.5 based on 110 reviews
Situated at the heart of the Pilbara coastal region, Cossack is a town alive with history and culture. Just 50km from the modern city of Karratha, Cossack is a peaceful and tranquil spot. Stay in the comfortable B&B accommodation or one of the camping sites and explore the natural and man-made beauty of the local area. It is also a great base from which to explore the region’s highlights such as Roebourne, Point Samson, Millstream Chichester National Park and the Burrup Peninsula’s Murujuga National Park. The Cossack site features a popular café and souvenir shop, museum set amongst the town’s restored historical buildings. There are excellent walks, safe swimming and snorkelling in and around the stunning Settlers Beach. The fishing is hard to beat. Particularly if you get out on the water. Cossack Boat Hire offers a range of boats for hire, by the hour or day.

Decided to drive and have look on our way to Point Samson. It was really interesting to read about the history of Cossack town as you wondered through it.
3. Staircase To The Moon

If you want the natural phenomenon, this version is probably second best, best being Settlers Beach at Cossack. No markets and way less people so much more enjoyable with a picnic and a chilled drink.

This and Junction Lookout provide views over the junction of three river gorges. Many of the rock surfaces are carpeted with spinifex which contrasts with the red of the rock and there are also quite a few white-trunked eucalypts to provide further colour and contrast.
5. Radio Hill Lookout

A lookout to see all the neighbouring mines as well as a spectacular view of the area. Ideal at dawn and dusk.
Reviewed By DocRah6 - Greater Perth, Australia
Great lookout from Radio Hill. You get to see Newman town, the mine and the hills surrounding with red dust. Great for sunset viewing and there are seating areas above so you can see the sunset or the sunrise.

Reviewed By WotWine - Karratha, Australia
Nice little spot to stop and take in the size of the Pilbara Iron Ore trains or just watch the Salt works in action. A very good interpretive information boards of the Pilbara. Seating and bbq on site. No toilet.
7. Fortescue Falls

Reviewed By JanineP40 - Red Deer, Canada
We walked the Dale Gorge Rim before descending the steps down to the falls. Some fitness/agility needed to move around the rocky gorge area, as well as swim skills. Water was refreshing, great photo opportunities. Some shady spots around the perimeter. Smooth rocks can be slippery when entering the water.
8. Cooke Point Viewing Platform

Watch the sunrise and the sunset - the perfect place for both. Away from the noise of the town the peace was astounding.
