WHERE THE DESERT MEETS THE SEA Photos Andre Rerekura Bluemedia Brooke Glaskin Copy Gabriele Steindl My Landcruiser was bursting at the seams when I hit the road in Margaret River, where I live, a good 1600km south of my destination: three surfboards, four kiteboards, six kites, a foil, a couple of kite bars, a tent, a gas cooker, and lots of other stuff I needed to bring. Driving this far on your own on the West Coast is already a rather unique experience in itself. There are several stretches of many hundred kilometers without any phone coverage, no fuel station or town.
