Another quiet morning.
Packed a picnic lunch and headed out to Smoky Cape.
Walked up to the lighthouse and arrived just before 1pm, and noticed there was a tour at 1pm. $10 each though, which we thought was a little pricey. But decided we'd do it. Except noone turned up. Waited and waited and in the end gave up and headed back down. Only to find the tour was down at the bottom of the hill. Yay for telling us that on the sign, buttheads! Were a bit over it, so didn't bother joining the tour late.
This lizard was on the path up the hill
Next up was a walk down to that middle beach down there
Have I mentioned the humidity? It was horrible.
This was the beach
And the view back up to the lighthouse
We went for a dip, even though the surf was the most dangerous surf I've ever been in. Waves and rips going in all sorts of directions, holes in the beach etc. In the end we only went in a few metres from shore, as the water depth changed too dramatically to go out any further - we'd have been swept out to sea for sure.
Had our lunch, and another dip, then headed back up the hill.
Saw these lovely glossy black cockatoos on the walk back up the hill
Cooled off in the car ride back to the house, then headed out again for a little swim in the tidal creek.
Dinner was some amazing jewfish
Not much else for the rest of the night.
