Sea & Sand Hopper

The story goes: someone was boiling a billy by a Queensland creek when they looked up and saw three moons... 🌙✨⁠
⁠
One in the sky. ⁠
One reflected in the water. ⁠
One in the billy. ⁠
⁠
It’s one of the legends behind the name Three Moon, and today that story is painted across these towering silos just outside Monto.⁠
⁠
A little history. A very big canvas. Worth going West? We reckon so 🙌⁠

Okay, we’ve got questions 👀⁠
⁠
Part lunar landscape, part prehistoric puzzle and absolutely not what you expect to find on a country drive in the Bundaberg Region... these 25-million-year-old craters have been puzzling visitors and scientists for more than 50 years.⁠
⁠
There are theories. There are questions. There are very good scones 😏⁠
⁠
As for solving the mystery? You’ll have to come see what you make of it 🔎⁠

Ocean views from the awning? That’ll do 😏🌊⁠
⁠
At Kinkuna Beach, the morning commute is approximately six sandy steps from camp chair to coastline.⁠
⁠
Pack the gear, air down the tyres and settle in behind the dunes for swims, beach walks, fishing, sunset sips and absolutely no reason to check the time.⁠
⁠
Beachfront camping at its absolute best 🙌⁠

Some cafés serve breakfast. This one serves the Pacific too 🌊👀⁠
⁠
At Nielson’s Beach, @the_beach_mill is serving barista coffee, light bites and one seriously good view to start the day.⁠
