EASTER AT QUAGI BEACH

 

After hearing that Esperance was totally booked out over the Easter break, we were a bit worried we wouldn’t find a nice (free) spot to settle for 4 days.  With our fingers crossed, we headed to Quagi beach camping area.  The camping area was a little way from the beach and as we drove in the road was one way with bush on both sides(we squeezed through).  The main area was full, but we were told there was a couple of spare spots close to the beach(if we could fit).  After a bit of pruning, we brought the vans down to the last 2 sites.  We had an awesome view of the beach.  10mins to setup, we sat having coffee and hot cross buns admiring the view and, as usual,  our 40/50klm winds started, and we spent all day inside, freezing!

Kirsty having her morning milo, Mikey having a fish off the big rock.  There are a few rock pools where we could swim safely.  No big fish here, just Tommy’s, nice eating, just small.  The mornings and afternoons are freezing.

Easter Sunday we went for a drive through Stokes Nat Park, which was close to where we were staying.  We did some 4 wheel driving to Fanny Cove & Cape Shoal(above).  Michael just reversed into our caravan!   Lucky for him, he only ripped the privacy screen!      Caravan, what caravan?

I forgot to mention Sammy the seal.  There is a fish cleaning bench on the jetty in Esperance and he hangs around for the scraps.  Sammy was sunning himself.  Apparently he does this all the time.
