We drove through the shanty town and found the track down to the beach... this is what greeted us:
...and no, I never expected we would take the camper onto the beach this trip ;)
The boys playing with the GoPro. We have some good video but the file sizes are massive. We need some software to edit the files before I can post any here on my blog.
Most of the houses/shacks look like this... I was just impressed with the 'Wedge Island Hilton' sign. Dave and I were blown away by the sheer number of shacks here.
Next up was a visit to the Pinnacles...
This is supposed to be one of those clever perception photos... but I will call it a fail :(
Megan found a friend in the souvenir shop. The lady behind the counter was awesome. She gave us some advice about local attractions... one of which was the Stockyard Gully Reserve... our plan for day 4.
After a quick consultation of WikiCamps we headed for our first free camp... and were pleasantly surprised by our choice. We stayed the night at Point Louise, also known as Billy Goat Bay. The camp spot was just a large gravel car park overlooking an awesome bay. Although the beach was quite weedy the bay was beautiful and there was still a good amount of that white sand on display. The water was the calmest we've seen anywhere and crystal clear. Would definitely give this spot a thumbs up to anyone heading north...
No, Aiden hasn't taken up drinking.... he did think he was pretty special holding my wine for me though...
At the beach directly in front of our camping spot, looking left. Next few photos taken from up on top of the cliff.
Looking back down at our camp
Karate Kid x 3. Notice how calm and relaxed Megan looks compared to the look of concentration on the boy's faces!
Another sunset selfie shot...
