Eucla is a remote but memorable stop along the Nullarbor, with a mix of history, scenery, and real outback atmosphere. The old telegraph station partly buried in sand dunes is haunting and incredibly photogenic—it really feels like stepping into another time. A short walk through the dunes takes you to the beach, where the remains of the old jetty stand against the crashing waves. It’s quiet, peaceful, and surprisingly beautiful. The roadhouse nearby is handy for fuel, food, and a place to stay the night. If you’re driving across the Nullarbor, Eucla is more than just a pit stop—it’s one of those places that...

This a very distinct place for steam shipping and water ..being still in development for the original plans to employ the local community for their services and amazing knowledge of this land..it will stay as a main watering hole and truly become a go to tourist destination...at a cost serviceable by any visitor's thirst for h2o and amazing potential for seafood experience..I can't wait to see what intrigued a civil engineer's town plans for the annual revenue of water and the best caravan park views available...who needs the...

Very interesting historical ruin. Not a lot of signs giving actual information - they talk about a book you can buy which will have information.

As other reviews say there is a lot of graffiti - however, I think the presence of graffiti also has great historical value. Because of the location and the fact that most graffiti has been carved directly into the wall, some names and dates you can still see are from as early as the 60s and 70s. Walking into the entrance, as half buried as it was, reminded me of the...

A short detour off the main road (A1, Eyre Highway) in Eucla, WA on an unsealed road easily traversed even by a non-AWD vehicle, takes you past the Eucla Aerodrome, and on to the car park near the Old Telegraph Station (a short walk in the fine sand). In a state of ruin, but a part of Australian history nevertheless. A short walk further South over the dunes brings you to the beach at Eucla and close to the Old Eucla Jetty.
