Back to having a late start to the day with the sun rising late. We had a look around Streaky Bay and I thought this place was great. It's a shame because I did plan on staying here but chose to stay at Ceduna to do the couple of tours that didn’t end up existing anymore. The bay was really beautiful and the town itself was also nice.



We dropped into the Shell Service station where we saw the replica world’s biggest shark caught on a fishing line. In 1990 a 21year old man spent 5 hours reeling in a 5.2m, 1520kg white pointer. Zach got a shock when he first walked in, not expecting it to be strung up, mouth open pointing straight at him. They also had very large shellfish on display like a rock lobster and a variety of crabs.



We took a loop drive around Cape Bauer. A really nice drive stopping at the blowholes and whistling rock. Neither were active at the time but Matt did get close to a blowhole and could feel the force of air being forced up. Nevertheless still a nice lookout.




Then we went to Murphy’s Haystacks which is actually on private property and the owners just ask for a donation. It’s not bad considering they have built a few good facilities there to use. The flies were so bad here though. It was just like constantly walking through a swarm of them. Nevertheless, the haystacks were good to explore.


We then trekked on to Baird Bay in preparation for tomorrow’s sea lion and dolphin snorkel. It is a small town, consisting of only 23 houses on the one street. There is nothing else here just a camp spot at the start of the road that is maintained by the community and they ask for a donation in return.
