Honeymoon Bay
We pretty much headed back to where we'd left from the coast. We stayed a night in Berry at another lovely show ground. We got chatting to a guy who was travelling with his family and setting up a travel website for Australia as they went. He told us we absolutely had to go to Honeymoon Bay. We had been thinking about going after someone else had recommended it but due to it being surrounded by a Military Weapons Range we weren't sure when you could and couldn't go. We found out it was open most weekends and you can also camp there (very basic bush camping). We went the following day. It really was beautiful! The snorkelling was great, we saw lots of rays. As Friday evening drew in the camp ground started to fill up, and so did the beach. We decided to hike further around the Peninsula to get away from the crowds and the beaches that we came across were as beautiful, if not more so than the first, and they were almost empty. We found a beach with a great wave, and a spectacular cove with a shipwreck. On Saturday evening as the sun was setting we heard the sound of bagpipes coming from the beach. We headed down to have a look and a man (we think he was Italian) was playing the bagpipes on the end of the rocks, and really well. It was a great sight as you got the silhouette of him and the rocks against a beautiful sunset and to the sound the the pipes. It was a great weekend!
