The day began with Klaus, Trev and Gordie deciding to go for an earlyish morning fish on the high tide…. Klaus and Trev leaving first and going down the southern end of the beach….

I went for a walk and could not locate them… but took some pics of beautiful Barn Hill Station Beach in the morning light….

The beach is beautiful with interesting rock formations – the colours in the rocks are striking…

The station has great activities for kids… there were even some baby goats and their mother brought into a pen near the playground for the kids to pat…

After an unsuccessful fishing trip in the heat, the fishos returned to camp…. the temperature here is roasting on the beach… it was incredible the difference that the trees in the camp areamade with the air temperature… just like air conditioning – they provided great relief from the heat – it was lovely sitting outside the vans in the shade even in the middle of the day…

Trev launched the drone to have an aerial look at Barn Hill Station and surrounds… and see if there was anything in the water apart from rocks…..

The landscape around Barn Hill was a bit greener than 80 Mile Beach but the caravan park area stood out with its shady trees….

You could even see 80-mile beach in the distance down south…

it was amazing seeing the rock formations against the sand and azure sea – and sky – all from the air!

After lunch we had a swim to cool off and Trev and I walked right to the end of the northern beach – collecting a few shells along the way and jumping in for another swim to cool off…

That evening we watched the sun go down from the cliff above the beach at the front of the park… rich colours in the rocks as the setting sunlight hit them were magnificent….
