Eyre Peninsula

Instead of taking the inland shortcut we decided to do it properly and drove down towards Port Lincoln. Very soon we started to doubt our decision as we were driving in straight line through monotone landscape, no towns. But 400 k’s later we finally got to Port Lincoln, which turned out to be a lovely port town. The night we spent in Lincoln National park where we got camp spot right next to a beautiful beach.

After having a look around town we drove over to Coffin Bay. That is also a nice park right at the sea. Next day we took our bikes for a ride. The track was really cool, nice up and down with lovely views all the way.

Next morning we packed up and headed back up the coast. Again in a straight line. Along the way was a sea-lion colony. We had a bit more luck with photos this time and actually have some, unlike with those seals.

Namisto zkratky vnitrozemim jsme se to rozhodli objet poctive a vyrazili kolem pobrezi. O tomto rozhodnuti jsme velmi rychle znejisteli, nebot jsme jeli v prime linii a celkem monotoni krajinou. Ale po asi 400 kilometrech jsme konecne dojeli do Port Lincolnu, coz se ukazalo byt celkem prijemne pristavni mestecko. Noc jsme stravili v blizkem narodnim parku, kde jsme kempovali primo u plaze.

Rano jsme se podivali po meste a pak pokracovali do Coffin Bay. Tam jsme vzali kola na projizdku po super trase, krasny vyhledy.

Po dvou nocich tam jsme se zase sbalili a vyrazili podel pobrezi zpet na sever. Cestou jsme zastavili u kolonie lachtanu. Tentokrat jsme meli s fotkama trochu vic stesti nez tenkrat u tulenu.

 

Who can spot a sea-lion?

Kdo najde tulene?
