After following this shack on Instagram for a long time, the stars aligned for me when a last-minute cancellation was advertised on an Instagram story, which meant that Semaphore was available during the exact same time I'd booked a camping trip at nearby Fortescue. I quickly changed the camp trip to a shack stay, and it was the best decision. Cozy and homely, view to die for, a hundred little seaside-aesthetic touches from hanging shells to bedside books, a thunderstorm on the first night that filled the windows with lightning, rumble of the waves all day and night... Unparalleled. Would happily return again and again. Recommended as good base camp for exploring the Peninsula, we visited both Crescent Bay and Cape Huay, plus a short walk to the marina, the fish and chips at the Blowhole, a gorgeous calm beach. And we got visited by deer! 10/10
