Straddie overnight through walk. TW 4 C

May 6 @ 6:30 am - May 7 @ 12:50 pm

We will catch the 6.45 am SEA LINK Water Taxi (NOT FLYER) to Dunwich, then board the bus and transfer to the Amity bus. From Amity we plan to walk to Flinders Beach Campsite J (approx 6klm) where we will set up camp around mid-morning. . Campsite J has a toilet. Camp fees are $30 pn for 2 people. Check link below for campsite bookings. Everyone will require BYO everything plus water for all day Tuesday and until we arrive at Cylinder Beach on Wednesday morning (There is an option to walk to Adder Rock to get water). Once we have set up camp we will take our daypacks and explore the island. There are several possibilities depending on how we feel.The plan is to pack up Wednesday morning and head to Cylinder beach, (4klm) have a swim and head home via the bus to Dunwich and ferry to Cleveland late Wednesday morning.
This magnificent island has much to offer, scenery, swimming at Cylinder Beach (patrolled) and abundant wildlife. It is an easy, beach walk, with a few rocky headlands and we may have to wade or go slightly inland so be prepared to get wet. The beach is always changing so it will be interesting to see what the weather has done – we can expect erosion and small sand cliffs, or walking on soft sand
