The Beach
The back gate has never been very good at staying shut.
No road. No car park. No packing the car. The children work it out on day one — towels, bare feet and the ocean.
Back gate to sand
A private path from the garden to the beach. No shoes required.
Morning walks
Kilometres of quiet, in either direction, before anyone's up.
Ocean swimming
Cool, clean water and long, gentle sandbars.
Long afternoons
Umbrellas, buckets, sandwiches — the sort of afternoon nobody wants to end.
Safety guidance
Follow local surf conditions. The nearest patrolled beach is a short drive.
Seasonal notes
Winter whales just offshore. Warm swimming from October through May.
"The first suitcase usually waits. The first jump never does."

Peregian Beach

on the beach
Peak whale season — spouts from the rooftop most mornings. Southerly evenings, clear skies.
Towels waiting. An outdoor rinse for sandy feet.
Little things you shouldn't have to think about, already thought about.
