About this series:
The Inland Sea: An Australian Odyssey is a travel series chronicling an Australian road trip.

The impetus for the trip was to look for intentional communities in remote, rural and suburban Australia. Beyond that, their mission was simple: to pick up stories on the go, by word of mouth or by 'accident', as the quartet discovered the outback for the first time.

Only minutes away, on Cemetery Beach, a natural spectacle is taking place that makes us forget all about the iron ore.
