    Pt Lincoln Foreshore

    2019年1月9日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    Pt Lincoln is a deep water harbour that is used for grain and loading and transport amongst other things. The council has established a 9km walk around the foreshore area and taking in many of the different secluded beaches in the area.
    There is a beautiful protected natural swimming pool attached-to the local pier and the temperature was ideal on the day we swam there.
    Apparently Pt Lincoln has the highest no of millionaires living in a particular region of the town than anywhere else in the state and all because of the tuna industry. Incidentally, they now farm tuna to ensure they have sustainable levels of a variety of tuna in Australia at least.    もっと詳しく

    Coffin Bay National Park

    2019年1月8日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    First time ever seeing wild emus with chicks...6!
    Also got up close with kangaroos and lizards and explored a variety of different ecosystems as the wind and weather favours different plants and locations.
    Lots of lakes and birdlife which is a m indication of the health of the wetlands here.
    Curious succulents with some beautiful flowers as a part of the plant which I assume is a native species.    もっと詳しく

    Coffin Bay Oyster Trail

    2019年1月8日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    Small seaside town nestled into the national park area. We walked along the Oyster Trail which follows the natural contours of the town beach and weaves its way through many of the beach houses located here.
    It is mainly a 4 wheel drive area into most of the walks however we were able to find others that were accessible.
    Interesting the amount of salt tolerant species of plants that grow in this area.    もっと詳しく

    Lincoln National Park (cont'd)

    2019年1月6日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    These photos include more aspects of the bike in this area including the obelisk statue to acknowledge Matthew Flinders for the work he did in circumnavigating this country an how difficult it must have been.
    Most of the time (based on the accounts that we read) the explorers struggled to find enough fresh water which most of food the time was sourced from digging holes into the ground and hoping to strike ground water.
    There are also stories of some of Flinders crew getting lost and not surprisingly Flinders himself only lived to age 41(?) young in any event and again common because of the illness and disease commonplace at this time in history. Met a group of international tourists who travel with this guy in a bus around Australia which seemed like a very cool job.    もっと詳しく

    Great White Shark Cage Dive

    2019年1月5日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    We finally arrived at Pt Lincoln which was the feature of this holiday that Jenny has bought to celebrate my 60th birthday.
    We boarded a cruiser with about 25 others to travel 75 nautical miles off the coast to a couple of small islands called the Neptune Islands. These islands are home to large numbers of fur seals that are the prey of these magnificent fish.
    We anchored in a stretch of water between two islands about 150 metres apart and then lowered the cage and commenced the “burley” trail as well as cast release with the fish offal. This routine brings the sharks in to move around the boat however this can take between 1-2 hours. We were in the first cage dive and spent 40 mins in the water which by the way was very cold at around 18 degrees celsius. We saw a couple of great whites however they were about 4 metres away. Their camouflage is really quite amazing and they seem to be in you before you actually see them. It was great fun.    もっと詳しく

    Whyalla

    2019年1月3日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C

    Welcome to Whyalla...the steel heartland of Australia. Big contrast between the natural beauty of the beach and the sight of the large industry that is also close by.
    Some good memories of Whyalla include chasing blue swimmer crabs 🦀, a beautiful seafood platter lunch, some of the old architecture in the town, the amount of seagrass beds that are in the area and the marine life they support and how it was @ 40 in the day we visited.
    Oh, also how far out the tide recedes a good 300 meter walk.    もっと詳しく

    Arid Native Garden

    2019年1月3日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C

    Just outside of Port Augusta is an arid inland native garden. Quite similar to the Cranbourne Native Garden although different desert based species.
    Lots of cool snake trails and an abundance of stumpy tailed lizards as well.
    Very hot day and we arrived at @ 9.30 and already at @ 35 degrees.
    All gardens are drip feed irrigation with recycled water and a lovely gift store and cafe featuring native seeds from all types of indigenous plants.
    Definitely worth seeing...    もっと詳しく

    Port Augusta

    2019年1月2日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C

    Port Augusta is predominantly a mineral producing town which sits relatively near the base of the Flinders Ranges.
    It has a significant indigenous population and quite a few old style buildings.
    The hottest day that I have experienced was between here and one of the towns on our way to Port Lincoln where the mercury topped 47.5 celsius...hot!もっと詳しく

    Snake Lagoon

    2019年1月1日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    This was another magnificent walk that led to a secluded beach that was perfect for a quick dip.
    The walk followed a stream that ran down onto the beach and flowed into the sea.
    The area was deserted except for the occasional track walkers like us and amazingly well camouflaged lizards that have the same colours as the lichen in the rocks.
    Australia’s coastline is so vast and so beautiful and so rugged and natural.
    Another beautiful hike 🥾    もっと詳しく

    Black Swamp Hike (cont'd)

    2019年1月1日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    The walk continued until we encountered a series of beautiful billabongs that were home to very healthy populations of platypuses. These animals build their holes in the banks of these waterholes and generally feed at dusk and dawn.
    We also came across a circular staircase that enables you to look over a vast area that has regenerated since the last bushfire. I was completely unaware of the importance of bushfires in maintaining the health of our native flora and fauna as there are so many native plant species that rely on the heat of the fire to regenerate and spread the seed of the plant.    もっと詳しく

    Black Swamp Hike

    2019年1月1日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    This hike was one of the most enjoyable I have done. It was a beautiful walk with lots of changes in microclimate and fauna.
    They have a larger species of grass tree called a Yacca and these were in the earlier days used for a variety of products. The phrase “hard yacca”comes from working with these plants as it was very tough work breaking down the trunk and spiny leaves.
    The termite mounds are interesting and the outside soil is easily disturbed at which point the termites emerge to repair any damage. Throughout the walk there were also beautiful contrasts of wild flower colours which helped make the walk even more enjoyable. Native wildflowers are generally much more subtle.    もっと詳しく

    Vivionne Bay

    2018年12月31日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    This is rated as one of the top ten most beautiful beaches in the world. I’m not sure who rated it and it is beautiful but unsure if it would be the top ten.
    The water colour was amazing as so inviting but alas didn’t bring my boardies not that that stops me but there were families on the beach so no go.
    The rocky outcrop on the ocean side protects the bay and allows for boats and yachts to moor there.
    Once again there is limited accommodation for holiday makers which keeps the area relatively low key in fact, KI is really a paradise for campers and people who want solitude on their holiday.    もっと詳しく

    Kingscote

    2018年12月31日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    Visit to one of the main towns on KI...Kingscote. Kingscote was the first settlement on KI due to its close proximity to the coast. There is a historic town through has been built to commemorate the first settlement.
    The original police station and jail are still standing and have been preserved by the local historical society.
    Some of the homes in Kingscote have been restored to their former pioneer glory and provide a glimpse into earlier times.
    The foreshore has nesting boxes in place for small penguins however some of them seemed dilapidated so unsure of how effective it is.    もっと詳しく

    Eucalyptus Distillery

    2018年12月30日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    The highlight of this tour was the orphaned wallabies that are being rehabilitated back into the wild and the cool buggy that you can sit on to watch an introductory video of the history of the business.
    Eucalyptus oil business initially owned by Faulding who exported the product all over the world in the 1930’s.
    Thought I would also highlight the slick salad serving ideas we have been exploring ;)...great option when traveling light.    もっと詳しく

    The Remarkable Rocks

    2018年12月30日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    These rocks are very impressive and obvious as they are all located within in one small section of the park. They were formed millions of years ago when hot lava burst through the earths surface and rapidly cooled in the presence of mica and basalt forming granite.
    The resulting erosion has occurred over thousands of years and formed these interesting shapes. When standing on the point the surrounding winds are very strong which has impacted the form and composition of the granite.    もっと詳しく

    Lighthouse & Admirals Arch

    2018年12月30日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    The national parks in Sth Australia are well maintained and granted this is a beautiful part of Australia so that helps 😃.
    This coastline is particularly rugged and beautiful and so picturesque.
    This is an especially favourite place for NZ fur seals to live and we saw many in this section close to Admirals Arch.
    The story around building the lighthouse is also especially interesting considering that they had to do everything by hand. Cutting the bricks and building it in such a way that it was straight and circular. Life as a lighthouse keeper in these situations was a lonely and thankless job.    もっと詳しく

    Flinders Chase National Park

    2018年12月30日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Two nomadic koalas 🐨 resting after a hard day doing nothing in particular. Due to the restricted nature of their diet (eucalyptus leaves) koalas have little energy and spend most of their time sleeping in high branches.
    This mother still has a cub in tow and the koalas on Kangaroo Island where they were introduced from the mainland are a success story as their numbers have flourished to the point where they have had to sterilize some to protect the health of the overall colony from eating themselves to starvation.    もっと詳しく

    Hanson Bay

    2018年12月30日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Hanson Bay is a typical beautiful inlet very characteristic of King Island. Most of the beautiful bays around the island have small shacks available for rent and the setting is idyllic.
    Sorely tempted to have a swim and would have done so but forgot my bathers. That normally would not prevent me having a swim but in respect to Jenny and the other tourists I thought better of it.
    The water is so clear and has so many different hues of blue.
    I suspect that there are very few locals that live in the area permanently.    もっと詳しく

    Little Sahara Sand Dunes

    2018年12月30日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    This place, as its name suggests is all about sand dunes and there are large sand dunes in this area which many people either toboggan down or use sand boards similar to snow boards to plane down the slopes.
    The sand is deposited inland from strong winds which continually build up the dunes increasing their size and appeal.
    They also hire out fat bikes 🏍 for riding around the area and these are quite modern models as evidenced by the photo. These seem to have bigger wheels than the ones we used on Cable Beach which allow riders to navigate the dunes and much lighter drier sand.
    It made me realize that being lost in the desert with nothing but dunes all around you would be very confronting and send you stir crazy quite quickly. Not to mention how difficult it was to walk up them...exhausting over time.    もっと詳しく

    Seal Bay

    2018年12月30日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    Most of the seals on Kangaroo Island were almost hunted to extinction in the late 1800’s and since being protected as a species (both NZ fur seals and Australian sea lions) they have made a steady recovery.
    This Bay is an ideal nursery for the seals as the bay has a reef that protects it from large predators such as great white sharks and is also ideal for sunning and teaching the seal pups how to swim and hunt.
    The sea lions are such named due to their coloring and amber colouring that mimics a mane.
    Great reconstruction of a juvenile humpback whale skeleton which I have captured in a photo.
    The conservation centre is well managed and the ramps provide good access to the viewing of the seals. In earlier times it appears that visitors were able to walk up to the seals to closely observe them but that has changed with improved knowledge of these mammals.    もっと詳しく

    Kangaroo Island

    2018年12月30日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C

    Traveling to Kangaroo Island from Cape Jervis which is a small town and if not for the ferry service would probably not exist.
    Kangaroo Island is quite a big island approx 160 kms long and produces lots of local product including wine, olives, meat, cheese, olive oil etc.
    It is also home to a myriad of other small businesses including emu oil, art galleries, honey manufacturing and many types of farming.    もっと詳しく
