South Strabroke Island Day Trip

The Green Family invited us to go out with them in their 21 foot Bayliner power boat. The Robisons also came in their boat along with Dave and Kath who live two houses up the street from us. We set off from Redland Bay at 9am and headed out between Macleay and Karragarra Islands and then turned south between Russell and Nth Strabroke Islands along the Canaopa Passage. Towards the south end of Nth Strabroke we stopped at Slipping Sands where we ran up and down the steep sand hill. Here are 3 photos and a video clip of the action.

We then headed further south going between Squire and Crusoe Islands and ending up at the top of South Strabroke where we sand anckerd the boats and and had a picnic lunch on the beach. The children had fun playing on the clean white sand beach while the adults relaxed and talked. He is a picture after we had finished lunch and are walking back out to the boats.

One the way back to Redland Bay we found a sheltered spot to do some knee boarding. James and Marty were first to give it a go. Jordan also tried it for the first time.
