Day 5 Cooooeeeee






Started with a cooked breaky @ Vivonne Bay, then off to explore the caravan park & other “Town” side of the Harriet River. (not much of a town per say but about 3 streets of beach shacks and stone huts).  Back on the road we crossed paths with an echidna on our way to Flinders Chase National Park.

  Checked in at the visitors centre and had a look around the information displays. Found our camp site and had a BBQ lunch amongst the very friendly magpies before setting off for Cape du Couedic.

Plenty to see down this end of K.I. lots of changing scenery, mallee scrubland, wildflowers and even some taller gum forests. Had a wander around the lighthouse and down to Admirals Arch. We were treated with an abundance of fur seals, many not far from the walkway and lookouts.  

On to Remarkable Rocks & were greeted by many blue wrens darting around the car park. An easy board walk stroll out to the rocks …Remarkable indeed, and many photo opportunities. Lucky we had good weather  as there was no shelter on the trails & board walks, it would have been very slippery!


Back to the camp site for some arvo tea and R&R and a load of hand washing. Finally we had some great weather to get it dry. Still only one gas burner  tonight so we are becoming experts at one pot dinners!

No internet coverage or phone reception down here so these following posts are a few days late.
