Coffin Bay
12th to 15th November, 2010

The National Park in Coffin Bay has amazing and crazy surf beaches. Set after set of huge aqua and white waves, rolling in relentlessly and tirelessly. Unfortunately for us, the weather wasn't that great. Lots of drizzle and it was cold, too cold for swimming.

We had a go at fishing at Golden Island and Gunyah Beach, with no luck - so much for all the salmon!

There was an abundance of roos and emus with their chicks at our camp. Also heaps of blue wrens and stacks of bees.

Woke to the sounds of human silence.

Sandhills of Gunyah


Besides a few tufts of grass, it felt like being in the middle of the Sahara


We caught no fish here, not through lack of trying


But the kids had fun on their raft


Just have to get it to the water


Hmmm, how are we going to do this??


Maybe if I cuddle Darcy and Eamon, Blake and James will do all the hard work!


Getting there - they did eventually launch it


Yangie Bay, our campsite

Why do kids love hanging round toilets so much?


Getting dinner ready. See how cold it is, November and we are in trackies!

A friendly visitor
