Sailed there a few years back and it was very cool, super flatwater and dolphins swimming along side. It's an awesome spot to visit and have a beer, after a solid session we would take the esky down to the water with a few captains chairs and set it up in the water and just mellow out.
....As for the sharks, we only seen them when we went out on a sail boat the next day....there are a lot of them! They tried to tell us they are mostly "nervous sharks" and they are more scared of of us.....yeah right![]()
....and another good one was sailing a little lagoon on the way up, forget what it's called but after stopping of a shark park and the guys informing us that's where the deadliest fish in the world lives....hindsight, it's an awesome thing.
....and the there was Denman, I think that's what it was called. Nice place to stop for a swim....yeah right, you need to dodge the sea snakes while mid breaststroke.
.....Do I need to go on, WA is out to kill you!
Best trip ever, can't wait for next time![]()
Crash, you've spoiled yourself. The inlet will never be good enough now and you just bought a house there!
I bet there are a few guys now planning to get away over Xmas/NY break.
Glad it turned out as you hoped. And NICE board trim.
I've spent a week up in Denham sailing at Little Lagoon.
I'ts about 2 kms from Denham, and because it's a lagoon there are no sharks.
Approx 1.5kms across - crystal clear water - and of course loads of wind.
Fantastic holiday.
Know the spot Blork, didnt sail there, but did think it would be a great spot.
Couple of crew went as YoYo said, but so far its been like the KGB, no information as to locations they went up there. ![]()
Well, it is a bloody long way from nowhere at all ...
Would love to have tried sailing Shell beach as well.
It was soo flat - but you would have to walk for miles to get deep enough for a fin.
Where did you sail ?
We are planning another holiday up there end of the year.
When I spoke to the guy at the fish farm he said that he saw 3 stonefish in the channel into Little Lagoon.![]()
I wouldnt sail in either lagoon unless I was wearing Hob Nail Boots
