I headed back out to the 5 beaches run and set up camp before going for a walk to the headlands on either end.
The normal track down on to Nanthau Beach
An old track before it got too hard ... i headed down that one

Good, no great spot to camp ... would be perfect if it had phone service.
I walked around the rocks to the south headland again, tried out a few oysters but they are pretty small and tasteless.
Found a few of these Pentastar disc thingies buried in the sand.
dont ya just love the Maxxis Razr's
Set up the shower beside the creek on the beach ... magic!

I headed back out to Nanthau Beach and checked out a fresh water lake ... signs of Crocs though so no swimming.

I kept going back out to my favourite camp and set up there again.
Pig tracks?
Local workers picking up the plastic washed up on the beaches
After removing this idler pulley bearing i found it was the AC compressor pulley bearing ... oh well!
Found a broken sway bar so stripped off and crawled under the Ute in the Black Carbon stained sand to remove it then washed up in the creek flowing across the beach
Baby echidna rustled past on nightfall

Explored along the beach and fixed the track down on to the beach at the northern end
Watched a cargo ship sail past

One last sunrise from Nanthau Beach and it was time to head over to the west side of the Cape.
I headed North up the 5 beaches run then turned around and headed south down it.

I fuelled up and topped up with water then headed over to the Seisa Headland to catch up on posting my pics and video
