SCUBA DIVING ALL YEAR

The Abrolhos islands lie within 30 nautical miles of the city.  These islands are fed by the warm Leeuwin currents and offer some of the clearest and most amazing diving in the world.  Forget the Barrier Reef, this is better and when you surface you can head back to design furniture inspired by your experiences.

SURFING: MARCH - OCTOBER

Geraldton is home to many local breaks and within ½ a days drive exist world-class breaks that can challenge the most die hard surfer in size and power.  When the sea breeze comes in, head back to craft that special piece of furniture.

WINDSURFING: OCTOBER -  JANUARY

Geraldton is internationally renowned for its world-class windsurfing.  Every day during these months you are more than likely to get over 20 knots of consistent sea breeze.  While waiting for the breeze to come in, fill in the hours constructively by making something to take home from unique West Australian hardwoods.

WILDFLOWERS: AUGUST - OCTOBER

Take in the real Australian outback and see the amazing diversity and colour of the local wildflowers as they put on their annual spectacle.  Inspired by the sights, come home and try your hand at crafting some traditional bush furniture.

FISHING:  ALL YEAR

You can’t miss.  The beach offers tailor and mulloway while boat fishing is likely to turn up catches of prize fish species such as dhufish, mackerel, snapper and groper.  Geraldton is also home to the largest rock lobster fishery in the world.  These tasty locals can be caught through diving or with pots.
