Our last day in Kirra yesterday dawned sunny and clear so we set out on our favourite walk along the coast walk to Point Danger. The beaches along the way all looked Sunday festive with the Nipper programs running full belt.
Rainbow Bay Beach looked the best organised of them all.
This was Rob's arty shot of a section of Snapper Rocks yesterday morning ..........
And looking out over Greenmount Beach ......
Every morning we've rewarded ourselves with a coffee (and sometimes a croissant) from the classy Cotton Pattisserie at the base of our hotel. We're going to miss our morning Pattisserie fix!
We were determined to swim on our last day too - and we did, but not for long, as the rain set in for the afternoon.
So we set out for home this morning after our lovely 11 night break in Kirra. We left early and had an unbelievably easy drive back to Karuah today - barely 7 hours of driving. It seemed such a breeze compared to the 10 hour marathon we undertook on day 2 of our trip up to Kirra from Coffs Harbour.
Karuah is a sleepy, quiet town right on the mouth of the Karuah River as it opens out to the open waters of Port Stephens. Its known for its oyster farms - but no oysters for us this visit! With all the rain and floods the water quality is not good enough for oyster harvesting.
