Two little girls at Kissing Point beach Townsville, 1949

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    The charming North Queensland town of Townsville has a rich history. The town played an integral role in the war in the Pacific, and many landmarks remain today, just waiting to be explored. Steeped in history, Kissing Point Fort is home to some imposing reminders of World War II: huge guns pointing out to sea from the point. The barracks and guns may date back to the late 1800s, but the new 15-hectare heritage precinct, Jezzine Barracks is the perfect backdrop to explore this notable landmark. 32 public artworks span the area, commemorating the military and Aboriginal heritage of the point. Coastal walkways, including an ethnobotanical walk with traditional flora, offer the ideal vantage to explore. The Army Museum of North Queensland sits in the center of the precinct, with many exhibitions and collections on the history of the Australian Army in North Queensland available for viewing.

    Thinking the white rocks are chalk, I googled photos of "chalk cliffs Ireland". there are some in Portrush in Antrim of which the geology in the Alamy picture that appears near the top looks somewhat similar.

    Mike Grimes Mike I hope you win the bun, but I need more evidence!

    Rathlin could be another possibility... It has cliffs with chalk outcrops. mvdirona.com/trips/britishisles2017/images/IMG_2931.web.jpg from mvdirona.com/2017/08/rathlin-island/

Fishing party aboard the Bay cruiser Sheila at South White Cliffs, Fraser Island, ca. 1925

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    This is the most frustrating fishing area, but it just adds to the challenge! The water along here looks good enough to produce a fish on every cast, no matter what the conditions… not true! The only really successful anglers are those who keep good records and are able to draw upon this bank of experience. This is true of just about any worthwhile spot but is particularly applicable to South White Cliffs. The area has two characteristics – an extension of typical Hervey Bay ledges and also as a deep snaggy hole near the mouth of an estuary. An approach to fishing the area is to decide whether you’re going to think ‘reefy ledges’ or whether you’re going to think ‘deep snaggy hole’. If you treat the area as you would typical Hervey Bay ledges further north, and fish in the appropriate conditions, you’ll probably find a good feed of reefies like coral bream, blackall, Moses perch, and cod. However, blue parrot and coral trout – common on the reefs further north – are not plentiful here. Source: www.fishingmonthly.com.au/Articles/Display/6708-South-Whi...
