Eucla

Eucla is a tiny, remote stop along the Nullarbor Plain, near the WA–SA border, but it’s home to one of the most intriguing sights on the Eyre Highway—the old Eucla Telegraph Station, slowly being swallowed by drifting sand dunes. Once a vital link in Australia’s telegraph system, today it’s a haunting, photogenic ruin that tells a quiet story of isolation and time.

Just beyond the ruins, a short walk takes you to the beach, where remnants of the old jetty stand weathered in the surf—a stark reminder of how the coastline has shifted over time. The surrounding landscape is classic Nullarbor: endless sky, wide open country, and a peaceful silence that stretches for miles.

Eucla also has a small roadhouse with fuel, accommodation, and basic supplies, making it a popular overnight stop for those crossing the Nullarbor. It may be remote, but Eucla has a character all its own, and it’s a fascinating place to pause and take in the vastness of outback Australia.
