North to Gnaraloo, August 27, 2013.

Early morning surf – goes without saying. But John was back by breakfast time. From our camp site he can keep an eye on the scene at the point.

We were a little tardy, but finally got ourselves on the road north for a day trip to Gnaraloo.

It’s only about 25km, but we took the slow road via another surf break – Turtles. John had a “quick surf” there. Is there such a thing?
The boys found a sand dune to play on while we waited.

Gnaraloo’s camping area is much bigger than the Bluff, and that means more people. They have water here, and there’s hot showers from 4pm-6pm. But that’s still not enough to get us to move from our great spot at the Bluff. The surf break here is called Tombies, so named because of the way your surfboard sticks up in the air like a tombstone while the wave holds you deep under the water attached by the leg rope. That’s encouraging, isn’t it?
Fergus and Harry had a surf, just along from the Big Boys break.
Gnaraloo
There’s great snorkelling around the lagoon too. We’re planning to come back here tomorrow.
