Learmonth Airport sits on the doorstep of the Ningaloo Coast World Heritage Area in Western Australia, making it one of the most remarkable gateways for a road trip in the region. The airport, located roughly 36 kilometres south of Exmouth, was originally built as a military airfield during the Second World War and today serves as the main access point for travellers heading to the Cape Range National Park and the Ningaloo Reef. From Learmonth, the drive north to Exmouth covers just 36 km, while heading south to Coral Bay — another iconic snorkelling destination — is approximately 150 km along the Minilya–Exmouth Road. The landscape around Learmonth is defined by arid red-earth plains, limestone gorges within the Cape Range, and a coastline where the continental shelf comes remarkably close to shore. Turquoise Bay, Yardie Creek, and the Vlamingh Head Lighthouse are all within easy reach once you collect your vehicle. The roads here are generally well-maintained sealed routes, though some tracks into the national park require higher clearance. With Yescapa, you can hire a campervan or motorhome directly from local owners across Western Australia, giving you the flexibility to pick up a vehicle that suits the terrain and your travel style. Whether you want a compact campervan for coastal exploring or a fully equipped motorhome for extended outback touring, the peer-to-peer model means more choice and often better value.
The best time to hire a campervan near Learmonth is from April to October, when daytime temperatures sit comfortably between 22°C and 32°C and whale shark season draws visitors to Ningaloo Reef from mid-March through July. The Ningaloo Whale Shark Festival in Exmouth, typically held in May, is a highlight worth planning around. Campsites across Cape Range National Park are in high demand during school holidays, so booking ahead is wise. With Yescapa, peer-to-peer pricing often offers better rates outside peak July periods, and you can find motorhome options across Western Australia year-round.
To help you plan your trip, we have selected six unmissable road trips, suitable for all travelers.
From Learmonth, drive north into Cape Range National Park and follow the coast past Turquoise Bay and Sandy Bay. At 120 km, this short loop is ideal for a campervan, with bush campsites dotted along the western shore. Yardie Creek gorge makes a perfect turnaround point.
Head south from Exmouth along the Minilya–Exmouth Road to Coral Bay, covering around 230 km of red-earth scenery. Stop at the Ningaloo Reef access points for snorkelling. Coral Bay's caravan parks welcome both campervans and motorhomes with powered sites and amenities.
Travel south from Learmonth through Carnarvon and on to the Shark Bay World Heritage Area, roughly 400 km one way. Visit the stromatolites at Hamelin Pool and the dolphins of Monkey Mia. A motorhome gives you comfort for the longer distances between towns.
Loop through the Gascoyne region from Learmonth via Carnarvon and the Gascoyne Junction, covering about 480 km. Kennedy Range National Park offers dramatic mesa landscapes and bush camping. Sealed and unsealed roads mix here, so a well-equipped campervan is recommended.
Drive inland from Learmonth to Karijini National Park, around 650 km via Tom Price. Explore Dales Gorge, Fortescue Falls, and Fern Pool before returning to the coast. This route suits a motorhome with good ground clearance and rewards you with some of Western Australia's finest gorge country.
Start at Learmonth and travel the full Coral Coast south to Geraldton, covering roughly 900 km. Take in Ningaloo Reef, Shark Bay, the Kalbarri National Park gorges, and the Pink Lake near Port Gregory. A motorhome or campervan handles the sealed highway comfortably with regular campsite stops.

The main route serving Learmonth Airport is the Minilya–Exmouth Road, a sealed two-lane highway connecting the North West Coastal Highway to Exmouth. There are no toll roads in Western Australia. Speed limits for motorhomes and campervans generally match standard vehicle limits — 110 km/h on open highways and 50 km/h in built-up areas unless otherwise signed. Vehicles over 4.5 tonnes may face lower limits on certain stretches. Fuel stops are sparse between Carnarvon and Exmouth, so fill up at every opportunity. Some unsealed tracks within Cape Range National Park may require four-wheel drive and are not suitable for larger motorhomes.
great van a few interior problems but apart from that all good
check in took 1.40 hr! legible dirty outside with tape repairs to window and mirror paid for gas but when we got there found canister was empty and we had to replace ourselves
Everything was amazing
Great experience renting the Jimny. The owners were brilliant to deal with from start to finish, and the Jeep was in excellent condition. It was perfect for exploring the Algarve. Would definitely recommend and would happily rent from them again!
Clean, well-maintained vehicle that gave us so many great memories! We traveled to many places and drove around 900 km ourselves, and it handled everything flawlessly. Thanks to its size, parking was super easy, we could fit anywhere, and we were able to sleep in spots where a different kind of campervan wouldn't have worked. It is fully equipped with everything provided, even extra games for beach days! The bed and bedding were clean, and it has a really comfortable mattress. The owners were super nice and sweet. Everything went smoothly during both pickup and drop-off, and they were always there to help whenever we needed it, even when we got a bit lost! 😅 Plus point that they were super cool and easy to talk to. P.S. The AC works like a charm!
Sergey's van is great. Really spacious, easy to drive. We had a great trip. Sergey was really nice helpful and was on hand to help with any questions during the trip. He even gave us a lift to the train station in Ljubljana! Would 100% recommend.
