Inspired by the demonstration the day before, and as per the instructions in the Lonely Planet, I decided to do our own little kayak tour of the bay. Sadly the camera batteries died mid-trip. Had they survived, I would be showing you photos of enormous homes, opulent sail boats, and action shots of our boat cruising effortlessly through the lake. Intead, you will have to use your imagination.
Checking the rather grim forecast up and down the coast for the next few days, I decided to aim for the only place that where they weren't calling for rain.
The town of 1770 has a population of 221 permanent residents. It represents the second place Captain Cook landed in Australia and takes its name from the year of the landing. While there isn't a lot to do in the town proper, it is the southern most point from which you can take a snorkelling tour of (drumroll please) THE GREAT BARRIER REEF.
