• Drive about Onslow

    October 11, 2024 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

    Go for a drive about Onslow - start off at the wharf where we get to see a Singapore supply ship leaving. Then head into the main town area, checking out what shops and facilities there is. The Tourist Centre is closed (season finished I think?) so we don't stop here. There's a supermarket combined general store. A couple of fuel depots - so we stop and fuel up. A good aquatic centre, gym and sporting precinct. Can sense the 'mining' dollars here. The town also has alot of major 'works' going on - buildings happening, roads working on, and foreshore renovations. Feel this place could be quite spruced up in the near future. All in all, a nice small town - relying on mining to prosper.
    I've added some photos from our evening walk in this as well.
