Hotels near Kalgoorlie Airport - KGI, Kalgoorlie

Kalgoorlie/Boulder is a very basic town with lots to do around the place, if you are into mining and gold. Really enjoyed Hannan's gold mine and the tour of the super-pit. Not a lot of choice for food, but what we did have was good.

The history of Kalgoorlie is so very interesting. The battles of hardship are amazing and heart breaking. The stories that the museums have on display were just so well presented. We travelled further afield, and visited Gwalia, Leonora and Menzies. Truly an experience to see the vast land. Having a dog was a trial when it came to eating at various places, no outside amenities. Kalgoorlie's streets are easy to navigate. The only thing that we would avoid is never to travel there in the hot seasons.

Boulder Kalgoorlie is the Wild West of WA. Known for its gold mines and prospecting. The people are friendly, and work hard. The gold mining history is interesting, and a view of the super pit is a must. If travelling across the desert, it's a good place to stop to wash off the red dirt from you and your clothes, and restock the pantry.

Goldfields Museum is excellent and worth scheduling in the free tour if you can - there’s one at 10.30. Super Pit lookout worth a stop and if clear try to take in Mount Charlotte Lookout at sunset. We arrived on Boxing Day be aware that quite a few restaurants and shops can be closed, some till February!
