Day 2 - Port Macquarie

The sun was beaming so for a change we went for a walk. With our packed lunch in the bag along with our beach attire, we took the coastal path towards the main town from underneath Harry's Lookout. It was a fairly easy walk with lots of different beaches and coves on the way. Some looked good for sunbathing whilst others had some good waves for surfing. We stopped at a park bench near Oxley beach for a spot of lunch with a view and then crossed a bridge on to a kind of island. On top there was a historic flagstaff used to signal boats so that they knew when they could and couldn't sail up to the port.

From the top we could see that the main beach was quite busy (by busy we mean there were more than 8-10 people) so we stayed on Oxley for a mixture on sunbathing, napping and dips in the sea. Having sufficiently topped up the tans we headed back to the house for some dinner and an early night.Read more
