The next day the sun was shining so we drove out to Cape Le Grand beach to have a look. It was beautiful but very windy here too. There is another camp site out here. The camp sites are very well equipped. They have solar heated showers, flushing toilets and even camp kitchens.
This photo is Cape Le Grand beach and the next one is another one of Lucky Bay.
We spent the afternoon at one end of Lucky Bay near the rocks. There were no waves here and you could snorkel around the reef. The water was too cold for me but we stuck wetsuits on the kids and they were happy to go in.
As you can see the water is beautiful. Not many fish to see snorkeling compared to some of the other places we have been to further north but other interesting things to see and Tommy found a beautiful shell to add to our enormous collection. The kids disappeared after dinner and rode along the beach and made sand sculptures. Here is one of Jacks, a lizard.
And a beautiful sunset for our walk back to the van.
We would have considered staying another night but we have run out of food so have to move on. The people we met at Munglinup Beach told us about a caravan park called the Duke of Orleans which is about halfway between Cape Le Grand and Cape Arid, about 83km east of Esperance so we will check that out tomorrow. Trying to spend as much time in the area as possible before we get to the Nullabor!
