After doing
some washing we drove down to the “Port Denison” side of Bowen to watch a kite
surfer speeding across the shallow water in the strong wind. From here we drove
over to the more protected beaches of Bowen. We parked the car at Queens Beach
and went for a lovely long walk past Grays Bay. This area was so protected and
calm that people were in the water swimming and kayaking. We continued walking
to the picturesque and cosy, Horseshoe Bay. We stopped for a coffee before
tackling the hike uphill to the Rotary lookout. It was worth the climb giving
us spectacular coastal views of the bays. Later in the afternoon, we drove out
to the end of Queens Beach and watched a girl learning to kite surf. We then
called into an old, magnificent pub, The Grandview Hotel and had a drink or
two. Following this we drove to the local fresh fish shop, located on the
marina and ordered fish and chips for tea. They were delicious!
