A great little spot 6 miles north of Airlie Beach is the exclusive resort of Woodwark Bay.  It has a lovely little beach with a creek which treated us with our second mud crab.  A little nerve-wracking when we find out after exploring in the creek that it's home to a croc!  

During June we've been exploring the Whitsundays - unfortunately a bit of rain and strong winds means we've been staying mainly on the western side of Whitsunday and Hook Islands - with our favourite anchorage being Sawmill Bay with great sunsets and rainbows.

Another glorious spot - can't believe the resort isn't in operation.  It's a beautiful island with great opportunities but seems it has been closed for several years.  Well worth a visit if it ever re-opens or if you're sailing by!

Another new anchorage for us and again well worth checking out and "respectfully ignoring" the charts depth of 1.1m!!

The second fishing success....a 1 metre spotted mackerel.  All a bit exciting as it was caught in Budgie (the dinghy) - not much room for us once the fish had made an appearance!

With a strong wind warning - there's nowhere else we'd like to anchor than Scawfell.  An old faithful for us.  Weather was a bit sketchy with winds and rain but nothing to stop a bit of exploring on the beach.
