I'm mad about Harry . . my girlfriend's dog!It's a little cold for the beach at the moment and I'm not a fan of lounging in the sand but there's something incredibly alluring and changeable and tranquil about being by the sea, even in winter.
Palm Beach looks amazing, a shame we never made it that far. And phew, those beach babes are pretty hot!!
ReplyDeleteI grew up in a small beach town, and oh how I miss it. There's no where I'd rather be than the beach, and I'm counting the days until our annual August pilgrimage.
ReplyDeleteI love the beach in winter :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots Baino...
I've been to most of those beaches and I managed a guest house for a time in Bondi.... when I was younger and had way more energy :-)
Keep warm
Ribbon
i want to look like those beach babes and if i did look like them i would wear bikinis to the shopping centre in winter. true story!
ReplyDeletei lurve the ocean.
Nice, though Bondi looks like a friggin nightmare. Nice babes, but Victoria gets my vote, good cliffs.
ReplyDeleteWould love to tour South Victoria! And wot's Harry doing, there?
ReplyDeleteIt looks lovely - the beach is always a good place to blow cares away.
ReplyDeleteThose beach huts remind me of childhood again.
South eastern Victoria pics are my favourite!!
it's as cold here as there these days, baino... can you believe FROST warnings in some maritime areas for the next few days?
ReplyDeleteit's bloody JULY, ffs! grrrrrrrr
'global warming', my ass!
I love an empty beach in winter, when I am well wrapped up against the elements!
ReplyDeleteoh wow! the pics of the 12 Apostles are amazing! nice colorful beach huts as well!
ReplyDeleteamazing pics, can I have the puppy?
ReplyDeleteI wish I could work out how to make my whole post wider so that I can get my photos to be bigger. I have tried changing bits of the code, but it always messes everything up - probably because I haven't got a clue what I am doing! One day I am going to get my own webpage and leave Blogger forever!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like Gibson's Beach, near Loch ard Gorge ... call me a nerd f you like, but I am sure it is ..
ReplyDelete12 apostles .. just the most wonderful coastal scenery ....
tell me the story of the 12 Apostles.
ReplyDeleteNick the're Adam's girlf and a few other's
ReplyDeleteHeather it's just lovely to be by the water. It's my dream to move to the Northrn Beaches eventually
Well Ribbon, you're a lucky girl to be so close! I actually would like to wonder the West coast. I don't know what people like about Bondi.Srsly.
Wel Mel, in our dreams peraps!
Bondi is full of foreigners and sharks hehe. Yeh the Great Ocean Road is nothing but spectacular, photos don't do it justice.
Subby, Harry is doing what Harry does best . . sniffing!
Aren't the beach huts cute. Most are old and as far as I know only in Victoria but they cost a fortune.
Haha . . Wuffa we're a little frosty in the mornings too!
Lovely to walk along the water front GM. Did you know that apparently Donnegal is the Surf coast of Western Europe?
Yep nice bit of coastline Brian but a long way to traul your beach umbrella up and down those cliffs so they're largely deserted.
DBM I'm the same. Kimy gave me the code but I was too scared to use it. Once Clare gets crackin' I'll send it to you.
Moon, one is indeed Gibsons. Great piece of coastline although the NSW North and Sunshine Coast in QLD are also very beautiful.
Not much to tell Cali, they're sandstone 'arches' that have been weathered into single rocks. Once there were 12 then one fell into the sea and now there are 11 and there's another in the making when the arch finally collapses. It's a very rough and windy coast.
Wouldn't have thought you were a bikini wearer.
ReplyDeleteAAAAHH! Bondi Beach! Where Aistralia won the Olympic Gold in Women's Beach Volleyball!
ReplyDeleteI lost my train of thought! You should have put the Babes picture last, so that I would have paid attention to the rest of the photos! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more. But we don't really have a proper beach here in Melbourne, we have the "seaside". But there's nice coast once you head out of town (NB: The Great Ocean Rd + attractions are in southwest Victoria, not southeast). You would absolutely love Wilson's Promontory Baino. If you havent been, go next time your in Vic... pub orders!.
ReplyDeleteI spent my childhood summers rolling around in the surf at both Wilsons Prom and North Curl Curl on Sydney's north shore. Great memories. I'm getting excited just thinking about it.
BRING ON SUMMER!!!
One of my favorite places to be. Thanks for the pics!
ReplyDeletebeautiful! Someday I intend to visit all of those....
ReplyDeleteNow now Rev. In my younger days!
ReplyDeleteDear Ces, you are an elephant, you never forget!
Ooops sorry Pub Man. I have problems with East and West, Left and Right but yeh, it's great. I've been to Wilson's. Lived in Melbourne for a few years. Beautiful but I'm afraid NSW/QLD have it cut.
Megan, go lob on Moon, he does good Beach!
Yeh JLMC not before I hit your side of the world!
I am here on a return visit!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit on the 4th of July!
Gorgeous pictures tese are!
It has been many years since I visited Australia...........love the memories!
Have a nice day!
I was married at Palm Beach in a little church there ....long long ago now and the marriage is gone too haha.
ReplyDeleteAND I was at The Haven, Terrigal a couple of weeks ago eating fish and chips when my granddaughter was born.
Great shots.
those beach huts are awesomely simple aren't they?
