White Sands to Coles Bay

After packing the car the night before we were able to sleep in a little bit. Or so we thought. The sunrise this morning was so nice we got up and watched the end of it at 7am (see the photos). We packed the last of our stuff and hit the road by about 9.30.
We arrived at Bicheno just after 10 to have some breakfast and then went and checked out the Bicheno Blow Hole, which was pretty good. I am not sure how it compares to normal, but the seas seemed pretty rough, so I can only assume it is bigger than normal.
We then went to a place called The Farm Shed: East Coast Wine Center where we did some tastings of several wineries and distilleries that don't have cellar doors and generally only do small batch wines and spirits... and we ended up spending a bit of money there too... at least we will be set for spirits for the next few years.
When finished there and with wallet burning, we headed for Coles Bay and checked into our next stop, had a late lunch and then I went for a walk along the rocks around towards the harbour at Coles Bay.
It is pretty spectacular the scenery here and if we had more time I would have looked into doing some longer walks in the Freycinet National Park as there appear to be some stunning walks that also overlook Wineglass Bay. As it is we are only staying 1 night to break up the drive to Port Arthur tomorrow.
Dinner and a whisky on the porch as the sun went down and a seemingly nice clear night. I may take the camera down to the beach tonight.Läs mer
