South Coast Western Australia
- South Coast Western Australia
South Coast Western Australia is the coastline in the state of Western Australia from Cape Leeuwin to Eucla.
Components
It is usually broken up into smaller regions, oriented to the Great Southern regional centre of Albany, Western Australia, and further east Esperance. [ Sandiford, Libby (1988)."Rugged mountains, jewelled sea : the South Coast Heritage Trail network" Perth, W.A. Dept. of Conservation and Land Management. "A joint project by the Western Australian Heritage Committee and Department of Conservation and Land Management". - specifically deals with the Esperance and Albany regions on the coast as separate regions on the coast ]
Rainbow coast
The Rainbow Coast is a tourist region name for the coast as well. It is called the Rainbow Coast because of the fast-moving weather fronts which buffet the coast. Main towns of the Rainbow Coast are Albany, Denmark and Walpole. The coast has dozens of National Parks and Nature Reserves including: Mount Frankland National Park, William Bay National Park and West Cape Howe National Park which is the southern most point of Western Australia.
Considerable numbers of government reports and environmental studies with 'South Coast' in the titles are focused specifically on the coastline adjacent to the Great Southern region.
