Mon 3 June – Coral Bay

Weather is warm, though a bit windy.  Went for a walk and a swim at the main Coral Bay beach.  Exceptionally clear water.  At waist deep, were surprised to see enormous snapper (half a metre) swimming past and around us, almost within reaching distance, as well as a number of zebra fish.  Not allowed to fish right here – I think the snapper know it.
We did a sunset quad bike tour over the dunes which was great fun.  I was pillion, Clive driving. The sunset wasn’t as spectacular as last night, but it was the quad bikes which were the good bit.
Had a great dinner at one of the two restaurants in town, accompanied by a pommy we met on the quad bike tour.  Interesting fellow, holidaying by himself.   By the end of the night he was offering for us to stay in his Perth apartment when he’s away working, next time we’re in the West!

Ready to go quad biking.  (I told Clive he looked a bit like Gazoo from the Flintstones in his helmet.  See next photo - I don't look any better!)

Me and my big head

Up on the dunes.  It was a delightfully warm evening.

Along the beach

Through some more dunes.  We went down a few quite big ones over the 2 hr trip.
