Tumby Bay- Beautiful

We took a short road trip down to Tumby Bay. It is about 3 hours south along the coast from where we are living. I guarantee we will return! It is a small little beach town with some beautiful beaches split by a pier type boardwalk. On one side is a windy wavy beach, great for windsurfing and kite boarding which Clint still wants to try! On the other side was a quiet, calm cove that was perfect for the kids to play in. Some beaches along the way looked nice except for the huge amounts of seaweed that was washed onto the shore. We were told the winds were to blame and aren't usually that strong and long lasting. Here are a few shots of our short stay!
The picture on the left is from the windy side. Clint and Miles were watching two people on their kite boards. The picture on the right is the quieter side of the beach. The birds in the background are Australian pelicans, they are huge! One caught and ate a fish right in front of us.
These kids love the beach!

  1. Awesome..Tumby Bay has a marvellous undiscovered atmosphere, but at the same time is within easy reach. From Adelaide, Tumby Bay is a 600km drive, or a 45 minute flight to Port Lincoln and then just 20 minutes by road.
