We are a couple of days away from summer here in Australia, the perfect time for a day or 2 at the beach. We went north of Brisbane to Noosa, one of my favourite places on earth.
We arrived in the afternoon and the beach looked fabulous. Noosa is protected from most winds, which is one of the things that makes it great. However, it is not protected from an onshore wind, and it was fierce. If you look closely at the photos you can see the white caps.
I passed on an afternoon swim, I’m not much interested in personal sand blasting, but got up really early the next morning and walked to Little Cove, the next beach along from Noosa beach, which was looking calm.
Little Cove is tiny and the sun had not quite reached there as I arrived.
It is a gorgeous secluded spot.
There were a couple of parrots on the beach, trying to pass themselves off as seagulls.
People were already swimming as I walked back. You must be up seriously early to be first at the beach here.
I grew up at the beach and I love it. There will be more summer days at the beach.
