June to August There are good reasons to visit the National Park now: In June , the Southern Right Whales arrive at Point Ann, first the younger adults to mate and later the females to give birth. July/August is their peak time and in one day up to 40 whales have been counted. Also this is the time of the Qualup Bell(Pimelea physodes), one of the earliest wildflowers and the gorgeous Pincushion Hakea and of course the main Orchid time, eg various species of Spider Orchids, Dragon Orchids, Cowslip, Fairy and and more can be found. In August of course many other species start to flower as well, eg the Waxflower(Chamelaucum megalopetalum), Davesia incrassata and Musky Beard Heath( Leucopogon apiculatus). Allthough there are some heavy rainfalls, there are always very pleasant periods in between, with sunshine and up to 20°C in the daytime. Cooler evenings can be spend in front of a cosy logfire in the Homestead Lounge.
