It was a quick and beautiful drive.
We needed water before we
headed into the National Park and thankfully for us the town of Port
Lincoln have a dump point & drinking water available for travelers.
It was easy to find and easy to access, even better it is on the way to
the Lincoln National Park.
A spot to ourselves again, right on the water at a spot called 'Engine Point'.
School and swimming before we headed off to explore & have lunch.
We saw different beaches, different coloured waters, a light house and
dolphins.
It was a lovely day out, even if the weather wasn't playing the game. We headed home and I studied while everyone else went fishing. A little more school work before and early night.

Coles Point {Free Camp}
Well we eventually found Coles Point, it took a lot longer than planned {after all of our stops for exploring along the way}. It was terribly sign posted, as in there wasn't any at all. Thankfully when we got to the right spot, or what we assume was the right spot, we had a lovely spot on the cliffs.
After setting up our camper we headed down to the beach for some exploring. Kyla and I walked the beach while Kaleb attempted to fish {it really was a little rough and the tide was wrong but he was desperate for some fishing}.

Only one night here and our next spot planned we headed for an early night.

Perlubie Beach {Camping}
Saying Ceduna at just after 10am with a night stop planned for Perlubie Beach {on advice from Amanda & John} we decided to make a detour to Smoky Bay for a look.
What a lovely little sea side town it is, another oyster town and another jetty. The jetty was teaming with sea life, people fishing & crabbing and a shark safe swimming are {I really had no idea how bad sharks are in South Australia}.
We arrived at Perlubie Beach at noon and WOW! It was amazing, the camping is right on the beach and there are also lovely little shelters scattered along the beach.
Our chosen camp spot was right next to another lovely family from NSW. Sadly this time I forgot to exchange details with them {how silly am I} but if by chance anyone else happens to bump into Tina, Paul & their two daughters in their travels let me know {they're traveling in the opposite direction to us}. We had a great afternoon watching the tides, chatting, fishing, swimming, crafting and simply relaxing.
The sunset was beautiful, if not weird to be facing directly west to watch it! The only downfall was the field mice, that for some strange reason moved to the beach after the sun went down. A cheeky one snuck in the camper at 530am when I took Kaleb to the look, which didn't make for much sleep before it was time to get up for the day.
At $5 a night we could easily have stayed here for a few nights but there was a wedding planned for Saturday {which we knew prior to arriving} and they had hoped for a free beach for it. The set up for it looked beautiful, so hopefully the couple had a great day.
