What a Difference a Beach Makes

On Thursday I posted a photo of the beach in Nelson Bay to show just how crowded it gets http://365project.org/onewing/2022/2023-01-26 and yesterday morning I walked down to our local beach and took this photo.

We live outside the tourist area and this beach and the marina are usually hidden from tourists.

Shh! don't tell anyone we like to keep it a secret.

When people are on our beach we always joke that we should check their visas!! :)

Beautiful capture and beach scene. Looks much more beautiful without the hordes of Summer visitors.

It looks like a real gem

I don’t blame you, it’s a beautiful beach, shh your secret is safe with me!!

[Carole Sandford]

We used to find beach area away from the main tourist ones when we lived in Cyprus, so can emphasise & understand completely! This is a much better sight.

Good to hear you will keep our beach a secret. We always say this is a local beach for local people, ha ha.
