Travel inland where the history of the salt mining by the original settlers brings a whole different perspective to the island. This is where the lakes and woodlands can surprise you with remnants of fossils, abundant wildlife and interesting flora such as the Samphire bush. Here the colour of the lakes can vary from brilliant white through to an amazing pink at certain times of the year. We exit the inland area where we will explore the pictureperfect turquoise waters and white limestone sandy beaches of several bays such as Little Paraquet Bay. Time for a break we stop at Geordie Bay where you can buy a drink at the café. From here we meander along the coastal beach side paths of Longreach Bay to the protected and pristine waters of the Basin the waters here are perfect for snorkelling and swimming and attracts most visitors to the island. Travel from here enjoying the magical vistas from Bathurst Lighthouse and then back through the relaxed Settlement area of the Island back to our office.
