One week in June

Got an opportunity to go away for one week in June.

Background:
Live in Melbourne - it's going to be a freaking cold winter, need to get some sun.

Question:
Australia or OS?

Rules:
Beach holiday
Indonesia is out (don't ask)
Gold Coast, Byron Bay (been there too many times, not interested)
No more than a six hour transit - fly/drive.

Nice to have:
Be great to get a few waves
Doesn't have to be warm/hot - but sunshine is good.
Uncrowded/not a big tourist destination.

That'd be the life. But I'm not confident I'd get to my destination and the heater would be reliable, especially in the 3200 GT.

Who cares what you do

That's great idea.

You have to pimp as good as he does, I dont like your chances

Scotts Head nsw
fly to Coffs Harbour
drive one hr south
compete in the comp on 23 and 24th
stay the week in a uncrowded small coastal town
water temp 20 degrees
protected southerly point so good sun trap
11km of beach

Your last name is Corby?

As I said yesterday who cares were you go just don't come west

hahaha, I went on a fishing holiday with squasha for a week in gods country earlier this year - fricken best week I've had in a very long time - didn't see another human for 5 days. No whining kids, no nagging wife... Just casting, sunshine, lots of bacon and eggs and bad jokes.

I'd go back in a heartbeat if I wasn't traveling with a female - I don't think I've ever met a female that could cope with a week long fishing trip in remote NW WA.

Hilly, if you can wrangle it, you should try and come along next year. I don't know what the politics of it all is but it's tons of fun if you can make it.

Next year I believe we are going to target Bronze Whalers and have worked out a bit of a system to haul them up the cliffs using stainless steel fishing line, custom strengthened hooks, tripods, toyota landcruisers and smokeys.
