Bailey's Beach

So moving a little further up the east coast of Tassie, along the appropriately named Great Eastern Drive, my first stay over was St Helens and the magnificent Bay of Fires.

 

The Tasmanian Parks & Wildlife site describes it as follows: "The Bay of Fires Conservation Area comprises a series of magnificent bays that stretch along Tasmania's north-east coast. Bright orange lichen encrusts the granite boulders, contrasting spectacularly against the whiter-than-white sandy beaches and turquoise water in the bays." I would have to agree on all accounts!

 

This is a more subdued shot approaching the first sunset at Bailey's Beach, one of the quieter spots. When a beach has the same name as your grandson you have to visit it hey ;)

 

And bonus, The Bayside Hotel had a great little feed and a cold beer, within walking distance of my accommodation. Most welcome after a loooong day photographerising :)

 

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to comment on my photos, they are greatly appreciated!
