Nestled in the sand dunes of Cape Range National Park in Western Australia sits nine wilderness bush luxury tents skipping distance from the blue ocean shores of Ningaloo Reef. Kangaroos graze around the dunes, humpback whales breach on the horizon and butcherbirds sing melodies from the trees. This is Sal Salis.
ECO-CREDThe principle here is minimal impact. Tents are open for nature’s air conditioning, all power is solar generated, bathrooms are self composting, soaps are made from native herbs and shampoos are ecologically sound plus the no ‘mod cons’ approach means no televisions or telephones.
ROMANCE FACTOR
Nature provides something for all the senses at Sal Salis from red sunsets to five hundred species of fish in the marine park of Ningaloo Reef. It is impossible not to be moved by Mother Nature’s beauty.
