mon dieu!

November should still be good, maybe if you go early nov.

don't think you'll get a bus to gnarloo, maybe as fas as Canarvon, but then u still got another 200kms.

Better to Share a lift with someone (offer to share driving and expenses for a better result), or hire a voiture yourself.

There is a company that hires out vans to backpackers, I think they are called Wicked...not sure though.

bon chance.

The bus trip from Perth to Carnarvon is pure hell. Don't do it.

And you can't take any windsurf gear with you on the bus!!!!

Gauts I think you may be mistaken about WA and Gnaraloo.... it is a 1200km drive (two days for you probably) and the last 100km is done at about 30km/h as the road is very rough. It is desert with no trees, no water (bring your own to drink and wash in) very limited food and no shade at all.

The only way to get there is in a car or van with all your windsurf gear, and you need to take about 10L of water per person per day plus all your food and an icebox to put food in. There is no bus or travel agency that can help you.

Forget the camping malarky mate, stay at the Gnaraloo Hilton!
