Could you please tell me if it's possible to use offline maps for navigation when driving from Perth to Shark Bay in Western Australia? I heard that there might be areas with no mobile phone signal. Is a GPS device absolutely necessary ?

No signal, just in some places, it's a main road, can't get lost, just got back

Yes, there will be some sections without signals. You can use the offline function of Google Maps.

Offline is fine. I traveled from Darwin down to Ayers Rock last year, and most of the way had no signal, so I was using offline maps.
