Moona Moona Creek tidal pools


We heard about Moona Moona Creek on the day we arrived in the area. It was reputed to be a great place for the kids as there were lots of clear, shallow, fresh water tidal pools at high tide at the mouth of the river.  With high tide falling mid-afternoon during our second week, we figured it was a good time to check it out.
 Its funny how dependant you become on tides during a vacation like this - we always looked up the tidal times in the morning to plan our day.  Low tides are the funnest while at the beach so when they don't fall mid-day, it was awesome to have this option which was super fun for everyone!

The water was so calm - perfect for the kids.

It was an amazing day in a beautiful place and there was hardly anyone else there!

It was like a pool & beach all in one for Kalyssa - she was in absolute heaven!
 

 
Tilman was pretty excited about it too!
The water was so clear - it was perfect really!
 
 
Tilman loved floating around in the warm water
Kalyssa was keen to guide her brother along
 
They had so much fun floating around together!
As the tide pulled out, the sand formations were very cool
The area changed by the minute - which made it extra fun for us all!
We did a lot of playing in the newly created sand islands
 
Kalyssa & Tilman played so great in the sand.
Such an awesome experience!!
