A Clothing Optional Beach???

Mildura ShipWreck @ Exmouth

We passed through Carnarvon with not so much as a sideways glance. The only thing we were a little interested in was the Mile Long Jetty but they charged if you wanted to walk down it...we declined.

Carnarvon is a fresh food hub and so we stopped for some dried Mango and home made ice creams on our way out of town.

Fuel is getting expensive; we are paying anywhere from $1.60 - $1.90 a Liter. It is so expensive but we are a captive audience and it is a free market so we pay.

The best thing about waking up this morning about 100km North of Carnarvon at a rest stop was that I got to see the sun rise out of my window in the camper and had time to have a good old chin wag with my husband before we got out of bed. Dreamy!

We arrived in Exmouth and found a caravan park that is safe, clean and pet free. Bonus! Exmouth is home of so many tourist tours that a person is spoilt for choice...they are also expensive...we decided to take matters into our own hands, do our own itinerary and have a good time saving some cash.

Today we went to Charles Knife Gorge and the 11km drive on dirt was amazing. The gorges were winding ally ways carved out by Mother Nature leading to the ocean. They are sparsely covered with some vegetation and the colour of the rocks are spectacular.

We drove into Cape Range National Park which is a World Heritage Listed Area. The coast line is rugged but awe inspiring.

There is a clothing optional beach in Exmouth and being adventurous we thought we would give that a go. I can safely say that nude bathing is my absolute favorite way to swim! Yep I am a convert. Dont be surprised if next you see me with NO tan lines at all. We had a swim and there were some others doing the same so it was all good.

We did have to run out of the water however when we heard a splash! I said to Mark "Was that you?" he said,
"No I thought it was you splashing..."
"Ah no...RUN!"
So we ran out of the water. On closer inspection we had been swimming with a sting ray. We saw him splashing around as we were safely standing on the beach...with no clothes on.

Hope you are all well and not to cold! It is 30 degrees here most days and we are loving it!
