Chrissy pays her respects at Onslow’s Anzac dawn service.

• Onslow offers easy access to the stunning Mackerel Islands and the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Coast, where you can enjoy world-class snorkelling, diving, and fishing in pristine waters teeming with marine life.
• With its west-facing beaches, Onslow boasts unforgettable Indian Ocean sunsets—perfect for evening walks, beachfront dining, or capturing that postcard-perfect photo.
• Visitors can explore Old Onslow, an abandoned townsite with preserved ruins and heritage markers, offering a glimpse into the region’s frontier past and the stories of the local Thalanyji people.
• Just a short drive away is Three Mile Pool, a natural freshwater spring perfect for swimming and picnicking. The area is also a birdwatcher’s paradise, with many native species inhabiting the wetlands.
• Onslow enjoys a sunny, warm climate most of the year—making it ideal for winter escapes or off-season adventures when much of southern Australia is cooler and wetter.
• Though remote, Onslow has seen major infrastructure investment thanks to nearby gas and resource projects, meaning visitors benefit from modern amenities, comfortable accommodations, and a friendly, laid-back vibe.
