Splendid Sunday on the Coast

19 may 2013: It began with an early morning paddle and then a walk on the beach where we had it entirely to ourselves; at times it felt like I was on ‘Lost’ and it was 10am. Then it was into the car to tour the many stunning headlands which are just a stone throw from each other to discover a few more pristine beaches before we headed home.
Our base camp for the weekend was the Seven Mile Beach Holiday Park at Gerroa. It’s in a great location and you are situated directly on Crooked River and only a short stroll through the sand dunes to Seven Mile Beach. The accommodation was excellent and very well priced, it certainly ticked all the boxes for us.
This part of the coast has so much to offer, there is a multitude of water ways that will cater for all needs, brilliant point and beach breaks and most times (outside of school Hols) you will probably be the only one who is walking along the beach. It has been a few years since I had last been through Gerroa and Gerringong and it certainly wont be the last! I hope you enjoy a few happy snaps from today’s adventures.
