The Return To Atlantis…

Adventure, Inspiration, Perthect - 26 February, 2016

<p>Just an hours drive north of Perth lies Two Rocks, a sleepy little fishing town with a quaint harbour, majestic bushland and unspoilt beaches. It's also home to one of Perth's most awesome secrets - the abandoned Atlantis Marine Park.</p>
<p>The park, which initially opened in 1981, was set to be the glittering feature of Alan Bond's ‘Yanchep Sun City’ vision – a premier leisure, resort and residential hub riding on the back of Perth's rapid expansion. But hopes for the park were ahead of their time and it closed it's doors for the last time in 1990, just nine years after opening. It has been left abandoned ever since.</p>
<p>35 years later Atlantis is now an overgrown marine world that once was and has been almost completely retaken by nature...</p>

Yoga In The Dunes

Fitness, Perthect - 11 February, 2016

<p class="p1">Two yoga enthusiasts, a mean 4x4 and 2 kilometres of pure white, crisp sand dunes… </p>
<p class="p1">Tucked away just behind the pretty bay town of Lancelin, about an hour and a half drive north of Perth, the Lancelin sand dunes are the largest in Western Australia consisting of nothing but pure white, fine sand. They are approx. two kilometres long, three storeys high and because of the lack of vegetation (none, zilch, zero), they provide the perfect spot for dirt bikes, four wheel driving, sand-boarding... and Yoga.</p>
<p class="p1">Yep, you read that right. Yoga.</p>
