Slither
pace slow we quicken
a cold heart crossing
the sun dust indented
it scares us to be so
far into the heath
we choose a branch
and wander
and wonder
through the grass
some old curse

The sound of the rolling waves makes for a good night sleep at Shipwreck camping ground. We woke refreshed and ready to walk. Down to the beach, through the creek and across the heathlands. The three hour return walk saw us nearly stumble on two snake, beautiful creatures. Be sure to bush walk with a first aid kit. Mobile reception is dodgy in this part of the land. FYI first aid procedures for snake bites can be found here. The isolation of the wide open beach at Seal Creek calls for a skinny dip, but take care – the water is wild!

We enjoyed a spectacular drive into Croajinolong National Park on our way home from Sydney. Our first destination – Shipwreck Creek campground.
To get to Shipwreck Creek campground go to the township of Mallacoota. it took us about 30 minutes on the bumpy Betka Rd 4WD track. Others appeared to have made it to the campsite without a 4WD, but I was happy to be in the Jackaroo. I wouldn’t recommend going without 4WD on wet days. With only five sites, The size of Shipwreck campground appealed.We set up on site 5 – it had a private fire pit (only sites 4 and 5 do). The facilities were basic but the toilets were clean.
If you’re travelling with mates, Book sites 4 and 5. The two sites are next to each other, together they make for a large private site; they are also close to the beach access track.
don’t forget insect repellant – the mozzies were bitey!

After a stroll on the wild beach, we settled in to a quiet jam, then with a class of chardonnay in hand, let the fire and the sounds of the night mesmerise us.
