MONDAY
Another early start for the 4-hour trip to Depot Beach. We broke it up with a stop at the Blowhole at Kiama. A good coffee stop, too.
The Kiama Blowhole is apparently the world's largest, capable of shooting plumes of seawater 30 metres into the air. Nothing like that today, but pretty impressive all the same. A little bit of Trivia: The name "Kiama" is derived from the Dharawal language, meaning "where the sea makes noise".
On to Depot Beach, which is just north of Bateman's Bay. A basic setup followed by a late lunch and then a bit more canvas out. We are expecting some rain while we are here.
Depot Beach is in Murramarang National Park, and the first thing you notice is the wildlife. Eastern Grey Kangaroos everywhere. No sooner had we set up than we were visited by a lace monitor, followed by very friendly rainbow lorikeets.
After settling in, we took a short walk to the beach. Almost deserted! And a pretty amazing outlook with a rockshelf to the south, which just demanded - Explore me!
