what a perfect day it was today at the beach - the tide was way out and so calm.
A fisherman was wandering around with a long pole and his dog... we never did see him catch anything..
the reflections of the clouds and vegetation in the shallows was spectacular
And the ripples in the sand lead your eye out, drawing you into a longer and longer walk We just love the beach when it looks like this ................. words are superflous!
We are so blessed to have this right in our backyard, and we will never take this for granted.
Thank you God for this beautiful world we live in.
Photos and descriptions of the wonderful walks and free or inexpensive things to do in this very beautiful part of Australia we live. We feel very blessed to call this area home, and want to share its beauty with everyone.

wonga beach
We have recently started walking in the afternoons on Wonga Beach. Beaches evolve and change, and some of the other beaches became very sloped, making it hard on your calves. Enter Wonga beach, you can park right alongside a tap so that you are not dragging sand into the car, which is very helpful, in actual fact most beaches here have taps.
Most afternoons there are just one or two other people walking, and our favourite times are when the tide is way out.
It is amazing to see some of the erosion, and how plants survive with half of their roots sticking out into the air.
Coconut trees especially will grow at the wierdest angles.
I didnt like these causarinas at first, but look how windswept they look after a storm
Isnt it marvelous when yours are the only footsteps on the beach?
This island is called snapper island
sometimes at a very low tide you are lucky to see these tiny blue crabs.
