The Gascoyne region of Western Australia is abundant with tropical fruits, succulent seafood and a vast array of temperate climate fruit and vegetables. 

The three coastal shires of the Gascoyne - Carnarvon, Exmouth and Shark Bay - are home to a thriving fresh food industry, each with their own distinct qualities. From the pristine world-heritage waters of Shark Bay to the northern waters of Exmouth and the Ningaloo Reef, it is pure paradise for seafood lovers!

Carnarvon is the regional centre and a lush horticultural region. The town's plantation district lines the banks of the Gascoyne River and yields a delightfully diverse array of produce. A drive along the the scenic North and South River Roads (affectionately know as the 'Fruit Loop' by locals) reveals the heart of the horticultural industry. Visit plantation shops, cafes and roadside stalls to stock up on produce that will remind you how food is supposed to taste.

Catch a taste of the great life as you follow the Gascoyne Food Trail, visit the popular Gascoyne Growers Markets, or time your travels to coincide with the annual celebrations of the Taste of the Gascoyne Festival. We hope you enjoy exploring the gastronomic pleasures of our oasis at the edge of the world!
