Bingil and Wongaling Beaches to Henrietta Creek

After waking to the crashing sound of the sea, it was straight onto the beach for the kids and into a morning of coconut cracking, climbing the rope swing, making a shop on the beach, some body surfing and a walk for TREBS to the end of the beach and back. Then, after the very civilized check-out time of 12 noon, we drove around the coast to Mission Beach and down to Wongaling Beach, just south, where a playground and the beautiful beach facing Dunk Island kept us entertained over lunch and the early afternoon. About 3.00 we set off in Pearl again, and drove up via the scenic Old Bruce Highway, flanked by both sugar cane and banana plantations, through to Innisfail and on into the Atherton Tablelands where we stopped for the night at Henrietta Creek in the Wooroonooran National Park.
