Keep them coming Tassie. Actually just any nice pics from Tassie would be cool. Then hit Tassie tourism up for some new toys in order to keep this great thread going

Thanks Devel, was in your area two trips ago. I love the Penguin cafe and boat harbour.
This trip is all in the east and Bruny Island. Also maybe that famous secret river mouth super bank.
Won't be just me, wife and 3 year old grandson who lives with us are my companions. Therefore won't be surf only.
Keep em coming.
Thanks again.
Do people really use those blow up things. Well I'll be buggered, I have never even seen one before. Farking ugly bugger.
ET.

Nice shots RR - some of those setups look sick - always wanted to surf that right hand point and now I am going to have to add the Carlton River mouth super bank to my bucket list

Wouldn't live anywhere else .

Surf here is pretty fickle , changes pretty quick depending on tide , wind . Lucky I am self employed so can work around it most days .
