TIONA, BOOTI BOOTI NP, BOOMERANG BEACH - 19 TO 22 JANUARY 2023

 

TIONA

Powered site on the lakeside north for 65 per night.

19 JANUARY

We stopped at Boomerang Beach. The tide was very low and though there were waves there was no quality. We continued to our campsite at Tiona. A nice camp with a thick forest of cabbage palms between us and the lake.

A band started playing in the pavilion next to the camp. The music was good but very loud.

20 JANUARY

A coffee across the road from the camp area and a wander down the beach.

 

A hike around along the lake and around Booti Hill. A 8 km hike from our camp area. Along the lakeside was pleasant with the water lapping on the shore. At a picnic area with crossed a road and followed a trail up and up. At the top and to the right, we had a view of Shelley Beach. The track to the Booti camp area was up and down with a lot of rocks and tree roots to be careful of. There were no more views until the end of the track where we could see seven-mile beach. We followed the beach until we reached a track that led to our camp area.

 

21 JANUARY

A sunny morning. 

We drove over to Boomerang Beach, where I had an okay surf on some shoulder height rights. We sat in the sun on the beach and enjoyed the view.

Next stop was the Kembali café where we had coffee and an early lunch. Back at the campsite for a relax.

22 JANUARY

A quiet night’s sleep.

The weather was looking very bleak, so we decided to head out to the west.
