July 16, 2017

We left early in the morning, but not quite early enough I guess. It was a really lumpy ride down. The wind was blowing even though it wasn't supposed to be, and we went into it and slammed for awhile, then it was fine, then it was worse. We pulled out into this little bay for a half hour or so and took a break. Then it was only another 3 miles to go and we hugged the shore so it was fine.

This place is often described as "land locked" as you have to work your way around some islands to get in there and the whole things is well protected. We got to the head of the inlet eventually and one of the mega yachts, Serengeti, was already there. So we picked a spot on the corner so we could see both the waterfall and the stream delta.

We put the prawn traps out "next to the cliff" which is where it was recommended. Picked it up later on, no prawns, full of mud, wrong spot.

Serengeti left and it was replaced with a few more boats. Several big ones, plus a couple of small "cruise ships". We pick the popular places.
