It took us 12 hours, mostly motoring, from Coffs Harbour, to get here. It was a sunny day but not very much wind.
In this sheltered shallow "lagoon" we are safely anchored.

Next morning we took the ferry to Yamba. It's a nice ride, 45 min, to cross Clarence River.

That's the entrance.
Plenty of nice sand beaches around. Yamba is crowded with keen surfers.
