That dirty big gantry in the background must mean something, sand mining perhaps?

There was a bit of that going on around Myal Lakes many years ago.

Also Stockton.

Could be a lifeguard tower. Not NSW, the cars all have black and white plates. In the 60's and 70's NSW had yellow black. So it has to be QLD or VIC.... Phillip Island I'd say....
