Australia - Tuesday 4 March, Drive to Maroochydore


Went for lovely walk first thing before the others emerged. Climbed up along road through dense forest, ending at Laguna lookout. Huge view along the coast and the estuary.

Back to saddle up for drive south, stopping first at Coolum where there was a very long beach and constant supply of breakers. Different from the 'dumping waves' at Noosa as they were frothy and not so big. Couldn't resist having a dip - on my own this time.



Continued south to Maroochydore where we mooched around wondering what to do next. Told about the Surf Club as a place with good views over the beach, yet again huge. Joined the pensioners in the restaurant and had very adequate and inexpensive dory and chips.



Drove back to Noosa and drove up to the Laguna lookout place.





Deposited T & R at the apartment before going for a very invigorating dip. Waves seemed bigger than yesterday's, and the undertow as fierce. Can see how people quickly get into difficulties.

Hilary did the evening meal, chicken satays and veg, choc puddings and rather a lot of wine.
