The Hamelin Pool Telegraph Station was built in 1884 and became an important link in the telegraph line between Perth and Roebourne. The fascinating history of the telegraph station can be relived by taking a tour of the museum which features relics from the days when the site was a repeater station on the Old Telegraph Line. A small entrance fee applies.

Stromatolites are the number one attraction at Hamelin Pool. These ancient structures formed by organisms considered as some of the first living creatures on Earth are examples of what life on Earth was like 3.5 billion years old ago.

A 200m boardwalk gives access to the stromatolites’ environment and interpretive signage helps explain all there is to know about these intriguing organisms.

Open, crushed Shell sites, large, easy access. Bring and take your own stuff. Old, clean facilities. Funding has just been approved for the re construction of the Stramolatites Obsetvation platform so watch this space for opening. Do the 3pm daily tour about the history of this Telegraph Relay Station, last one left of the original 34. Enjoyable stop.

Small but charming caravan park near the Stromatolites at Hamelin Pool. Must be self-contained. No potable water and must take rubbish on departure. Small dirt base $11 per person per night unpowered. Facilities include flushing toilets and showers, camp kitchen, swimming pool. Very weak Telstra reception but no Optus/TV. Easy access to Stromatolites via 1.5 km trail which also goes through the old shell quarry and the hill which offers a view of the park and sunsets. There is also a museum at the old telegraph station on-site.

A rustic campground, a slice of history, very close to the stromatalites. Great sunset views and a very welcome swimming pool. Toilet block is a bit past the useby date, but other than that a great value stay @ $11 pp pn.
