The surf was a bit messy early in the morning.
I headed back to North Avoca beach at about 10am. It looked okay but it was actually heaps better in the water - lots of good waves and only a small crowd. A feel good tired now.

About mid afternoon, the girls and I had coffee down at Terrigal Beach.

Jacinta and I drove over to Pearl Beach.
We had coffees and breakfast on the beach. I then had a snorkel along
the southern point but the visibility as very poor. The further out I went the
worse it got until I couldn't see anything at all.
I returned to shore and had a walk out to Green Point along the shore
line. There was a short ocean pool and interesting rock formations on the
cliffs. The end of the point was a terraced like cliff that was easily climbed.
From the top there were great views over the coastline north and south.
Next, we drove around Patonga - beach, pier, the creek and camping
area.

We woke early and drove to the Belmont Wetlands in Newcastle.
The starting track was flat and easy. At the end of the track was a
road leading to the beach. We followed that and then walked over the sand dunes
to the ocean. This place was 4WD heaven. The beach was rutted with tyre tracks
and cars were parked amongst the dunes.
We backtracked and turned off towards Belmont Lagoon. The lagoon looked
very shallow and was pretty. Further along there was another turn off which
ended in three concrete structures covered in graffiti.
We followed one more track with a pipe line beside us leading to the
cycle way.
We cycled back to the van along the cycle way. Jacinta stopped and I
backtracked to a couple of off path tracks.
After the ride, we had a swim and a laze in the sun at Hams Beach.
