Here a fish, there a fish, everywhere a fish, fish ........... Graeme is in his element. This morning’s catch of cod and sweep will keep us in fish for a while, and Neil accepted one happily. A cloudy and cooler morning was good for a change. After saying our farewells to our lovely neighbours, we headed up to 2 Mile Beach which doesn’t have the reef protection but it was not as attractive as our other site so we continued on to Ravensthorpe then decided to go on to Bremer Bay. We booked into a caravan park and enjoyed long, hot showers and washed all our bedding and clothing. Wonderful!

We explored the small settlement of Bremer Bay, visited the beach and the estuary with its myriad of birdlife and fenced-off areas to protect the endangered plovers and other birds. A very environmentally-aware place!

We then drove just a few km across the headland to the magnificent Dillon Bay where families were swimming and diving off the rocks in a gorgeous tiny little bay – 4WDs on beach, of course – and surfers were catching the shore break waves.
From there we drove on, intending to camp at Millers Point, however after 6km on a very painful corrugated road, we decided that this fisherman’s retreat and land-locked estuary had nothing to offer us, so on again. We travelled a total of 260km today but ended up turning at Many Peaks to Nelson Beach in Two Peoples Bay at a pretty camp spot under trees and sheltered from the wind and with a view out to some of the ‘Many Peaks’.
