22 – 24 July 2024
Etty Bay is well known for its resident cassowaries and
there is a small caravan park so we set up camp there for 2 nights. The sites are
laid out in such a way that we could see the beach even though we didn’t have a
beachfront site. Mick was hopeful of getting a cassowary photo after missing
out last time we visited. That time we didn’t see one until we were on the road
just over the hill when leaving Etty Bay. Unfortunately photo opportunities
were limited that time.
We enjoyed long walks along the beach and in the adjacent rainforest, but there was not a cassowary to be seen. Mick thought that maybe the time if year was to blame, with adults tending eggs and therefore not wandering around as they usually do. We would just have to come back again at a different time of year. It was a lovely spot for a few days anyway.
