The walk today is a round trip into Crescent Bay and return.
The weather forecast is for reasonably strong winds and possible rain in the afternoon.
Heading onto the walk from the Remarkable Cave's carpark.
Cape Raoul in the distance.
There is a large swell running into the Cave.
Making waterfalls when the swell retreats from the rocky shore.
Heading along the track.

Heading down towards Crescent Bay after morning tea at the Look-out.
Michael climbed Mount Brown and found this interesting rock formation.

The summit view of Tasman Island.
And the view from Crescent Bay beach.

One of the more adventurous walkers having a dip.
While the rest of us relaxed on the rock seating having a leisurely lunch.
Close-up of the rock formation on the beach.
Ominous looking clouds starting to arrive.
And they were still there when we returned.
A Eucalyptus growing just behind the dunes of the beach.
Heading back along the track to the cars.
The coastal vegetation was quite spectacular alongside the track.
Scented Paperbark.

We had a group of 15 who covered 9kms in 3.25 hours and the weather held out for the day.
An enjoyable shorter walk.
Thanks to Michael and Mendelt for their photo contributions.
