It's on the coast about 60 kilometres north of Carnarvon, Western Australia.

It's a magic place with many blow holes. As you get to the end of the road at the blow holes you can go left to the beach where dozens of vans and cabins accommodate fishermen and women when the season is on. I don't know when , but my mate at Carnarvon has been catching fish this week, and it wasn't too rough.
If you go right you end up at the station, but there a some free camping spots before you get there.
The road is dirt, and condition varies. Rough and stony, graded and stony or just rough, but it's worth the effort.
I camped in Carnarvon at one of the parks, The Coral Coast right in town, and then I went out there for a drive.
You can also go out to Gascoyne Junction, but I haven't been out there, and that road can be a bit hard of normal vans.
I didn't go out to the actual homestead and camp.
It most certainly is worth the drive. The whales may even be heading north by then if you're really lucky.
Have a great trip.

We have stayed at Quoba 2 years ago and enjoyed it, the fishing is good but a lot of the cliffs are quite high. We stayed at the station but our friends went up later and stayed at the camp to the left. No power at the southern end but they looked good campsites.
