Its our second day at Binalong Bay and we are still waiting for better winds to head south. Andrew and I decided to get off the boat and for a hike around the point between Binalong Bay and Lady Barron. The walk ended up being about 15 kilometres with shoreline views, many woodland micro climates, beaches, boardwalks, dirt tracks, paved roads and even sidewalks.

We were able to take the dinghy to a good dock in a very protected little man made harbour. The hike started on the waterfront trail right at the dock.

The hiking trail started right from the dinghy dock and headed around the point. |
After we rounded the point we were walking along the entrance to the river that leads to the town of Lady Barron. We had planned to visit Lady Barron but when I called the volunteer marine rescue to check if it was safe for us to cross the bar at the river entrance I was told there was not enough depth for us to enter safely. The catamaran moored near us told us they were getting guided into Lady Barron by the VMR so we took some pictures of them entering the bar.

We had some nice views of the lichen on the rocks in The Bay of Fires area.

This area of Tasmania is called the Bay of Fires and is one of the big tourist regions |
