## Description

A single sealed regional terminal, a daily Rex link to Perth and a Qantas Freight desk handling belly cargo sum up the air side of Esperance Airport (EPR) on Western Australia's south coast. The heavy lifting in this region belongs to the sea: the deepwater Port of Esperance ships iron ore, grain and nickel in bulk. The airport, about 23 km north of town on the Coolgardie-Esperance Highway, instead moves passengers and time-critical freight, with Qantas Freight lodging and collecting consignments on each flight. That highway doubles as the road-freight spine up to the Kalgoorlie goldfields. For onward domestic and international air cargo, Perth is the reference point. Esperance is also famed for its white-sand beaches and parks such as Cape Le Grand.
