Exploring Barra

We set off today in Sylvia, Mark's Polo, to explore the northern part of the peninsula at Barra, about 10kms away but on some very sandy parts of road when we got there, so had to park and walk for fear of getting stuck in the sand reserved for 4x4 vehicles. Here we found Neptunes, a delightful beach bar.

Algodoal, the cottage we were staying at in Tofo

The lie of the land at Barra, the northern part of the peninsula. Neptunes is no 10 on the map. We returned a few days later and headed right to Mad Mozzies beach bar no 23 and then walked to the lighthouse
