In June the whales go swimming by the coastline on their migration up the East Coast. Boat Harbour and Anna Bay are two of the best spots to see them from the shore line or if you arre more adventurous a boat cruise will take you up real close and personal.
A lot of dolphins call the waters around Nelsons Bay home. Fly Point is one of the best spots to see them swimming on sunset. They play in the water and show off their new borns. Many cruises sail around the still waters of the bay and find many of the resident pods.
I recently went out to the sand dunes at Birubi beach and sat in the dunes and enjoyed a bottle of Champagne while watching the sun go down. Amazing place to experience the solitude and the vastness. I became to understand how easy it would be to get lost in the desert. Many tour operators have licences to take people on tours throughout the dunes and down the beach. The beach is about 20 k’s long.
