Eucla

Eucla is located approximately 13 kilometres west of the South Australian border. Established in 1877 as a manual repeater station for the Overland Telegraph. In the 1890's a rabbit plague passed through the area which caused large sand drifts that repeatedly covered and uncovered the telegraph station. Today, it is said, that the telegraph station ruins are haunted by a ghost.

Where to Go.

Golden Outback

Western Australia is abundant with uniqueness. Head north of Perth and you will see some of the most inspiring landscapes in the world. It also boasts the largest fish in the world, the Whale Shark, which attracts many tourists and researchers for the experience of swimming with them. Head south of Perth and you will find some of the best wines and some of the top surfing waves in the world. Inland you will find the largest shire with the least people, the biggest open cut mining in the world, and maybe find some gold nuggets in the process.
