eagle hawk, or somewhere nearby? in tassie
Yep Eaglehawk Neck (did you look at a map around where I had just been or knew it :wink: ), can't remember the name of the beach though.

Aarron's looks like the the opposite facing beaches - high and dry on the low tide.

He's right about the area - guess who forgot to hide his photo name? No idea from me as I haven't been there since 1971.

So "aaronn" are we looking at Narrabeen in your photo?

Here's one from me. Clue: The beach is named after the subject. But there's quite a few in Australia so which one?:-

Yeah, the lighthouse above, er, lighhouse (locally known as shithouse) beach. Rarely works well and a haven for hordes of boogers.
Your opinion is worth as much as it costs.

For aaron I know where this is can even be found on a cam and it was this flat on Christmas Day. It is the gold coast for mexicans. I'm gonna play clues for my first post :D You can see food and eat it at a wharf! It had a small bushfire on boxing day! It has its own airport. A good but infrequent left hander. Kai Country but not the obvious spot.

The cigar goes to lessermore with pretty accurate additional comments from Chillin. Those google image searches are making it all too easy.

Just completed a 2 day, 700km ramble around Tassie, took a throwaway camera and took a few shots, will see how well you guys know this area when I find out how to process them these days.
