265kms / 3 ¾ hrs Point Quobba - Tropic of Capricorn (photo) - Coral Bay We woke up and got organised and had brekkie then on our way out of Point Quobba we went down to the lagoon and fed the fish some bread and then we went to the blowhole and it was so much calmer today and the action was the blowhole rather than the waves crashing over the cliff. We were also entertained by more whales jumping and splashing around. There were men balloon fishing right ...

It was another relaxing morning and after brekkie we lazed around the caravan and then we went and watched Rog fish near the point. He wasn't successful this time but we were lucky enough to spot another Dugong and this time it was about 3 metres from the shore and was swimming towards the point very slowly.

We had another lovely relaxing morning. We had brekkie then drove to the blowholes and watched them again. It is very windy and rainy today.

We hopped in one end and the current would take us down the beach where we would get out and do it all...

Whalebone Bay - Carnarvon - Point Quobba 405 kms / 10 ½ hours We woke up at 6:30am and were about to leave and spotted a pod of dolphins that swam into the bay feeding on fish. We watched them for about 10 mins and they got further away so we left at 7:10am. We stopped at the Hamelin Pool Stromatolites which is one of only a few places on earth where living marine stromatolites (the oldest living organisms on the planet) exist. These rocky looking lumps i...
